Duet (2014 film)

Duet is a 2014 short film created by Disney animator Glen Keane. The project was done in conjunction with Google’s Advanced Technology and Projects Group (ATAP) as part of Google’s Spotlight Stories.[1]

Production

Keane initially said the following when he heard about the possible collaboration: "When I first looked at the phone and saw how small the screen was, I thought this wasn’t going to be for me...I realize now that I was wrong on that."[1]

An interactive version allowed viewers to "follow either character or examine the various settings from various angles depending on how they moved their phones".[1]

Plot

The film is "a hand-drawn, lyrical look at the intertwined lives of a boy and a girl from birth to adulthood".[1]

Critical reception

The film garnered an Annie Award nomination, and is currently short listed for an Academy Award nomination too.[1]
