A Tale of Two Twins

A storybook tells the incredible tale of a pair of identical twins who, after one of them embarked on an intergalactic journey at the speed of light, have aged at vastly different rates. Intrigued by the conundrum, the two narrators invite the audience to a lively chat on special relativity - the culprit behind Einstein’s famous Twin Paradox.

Animated short in cut-out stop-motion. Final project for VES 54s Animating Science, Spring 2010.
