The Weathering
Interactive Web-Based Story Experience
2019
“The Weathering” is an interactive web-based story experience about a woman who, after the death of her husband, obsesses over finding his spirit and connecting with him in the afterlife no matter the cost. Stop-motion puppetry and animated illustrations bring to life this sinister yet inherently touching account of the power and price in loving what can be lost.
This is a selection of animation from the original web-based narrative story
The Weathering by Eva Louise Hall. See and read the story in its entirety at:

Animated Motion Story
2018
Louise is a seemingly ideal and perfect 1960s well to do house wife living in California with a dark past of religious suppression and familial abandonment. When she isn’t being a doting wife or a prominent figure under an ever watching eye of society she is engaging in disordered eating habits and self-harm in order to feel cleansed of her past “sins” and as a coping mechanism for control and stability. When she becomes pregnant at the adamant desire of her husband, she must reconcile her need to belong and be accepted and her desires to rebel against what others want from her.
