The 3D animated short film, "Bent Out of Shape" follows the story of a dull, square woman and her child living in a dull, square world. However, when a bright, circular neighbor moves in next door, the square woman begins to feel that her lifestyle is being threatened. Even worse, she worries that her square child may be affected by the circular neighbor's influence...

This short film was completed over the course of a couple of years, and created entirely by Chloe Merwin as a senior thesis project in the Computer Animation program at Ringling College of Art and Design.
