THE WEIGHING OF THE HEART
(Oct. 2017 – June 2019) Duration: 00:06:15

This project is my bachelor film on which I worked with Laura M. Weber.

For thousands of years Anubis, the ancient Egyptian Guardian of the Underworld, has performed the Weighing of the Heart. Once however the Scales of Justice cannot decide whether the heart is good or bad. Anubis must prove himself against Ammit, a crocodilian goddess, thereby becoming the true God of the Dead.

The music for our story was composed by Mirjam Schnedl.
