Girl in Red

A short originally made for a scriptwriting class is now storyboarded using Storyboard Pro. The story is about a young intern who has to come up with the nerve to ask out her crush before she finishes her last shift. The original idea was inspired by the TikTok trend of asking another woman if she likes women, by asking her if she liked "Girl in Red."
