Catkin

Catkin is both a degree film and a passion project that explores a relationship between a girl and nature. The film took a full year to complete and was a solo piece. This film was featured in the University of Hertfordshire's Animation Expose 2018 and went on to win the award for Best 2D Film.

Kuriositas gave a review of the film:

"A young girl lives with an unhappy home life finds solace in nature. This alone sounds a little been there, done that. However, what makes this animated short by Charlotte Davis (who created it during her time at Hertfordshire University) is how beautifully nuanced it is. As any animator will tell you it is no mean feat to create an inner life for a character made out of pixels. Yet Davis does this with panache and delivers a short and heartfelt story which you may find lingering in your mind for quite a while."
