how can I use blender to complete a full short film about my experiences utilizing different animation styles?

Project's result

I have created an animation by Blender, conveying a story based on my personal life. The backgrounds are made by 3d, and the characters are created by Grease Pencil, a function in Blender which enables one to draw 2d shapes in the program.

They started it from zero. Are you ready to level up with us?

Summary

My project is about a high school student gaining the courage to participate in a talent show, with a help of his friend.

The film was made using Blender, a 3D program. The background and various objects in the film were made by Blender, and the characters were made by grease pencil, a function in Blender that allows the user to draw 2D objects in a 3D environment.

The film’s narrative was derived from my personal experience of wanting to be on stage, but being cautious and skeptical of whether I should really try it. I found out a way to get the courage, which was from the help of my friends. That experience is reflected in the film.
