The Journey

The Journey

The Journey opens with a girl and her imaginary friends as they reluctantly sail away from home. Heartbroken, they watch their old house disappear. Their move is a fantastical journey, through storms, canyons and eerie woodlands. They finally arrive at a cave in the mountains. As night falls, they hesitantly move inside. In the morning the girl is awoken by a child's voice outside. As she looks out, her world snaps to reality. A new neighbour is waving at her. She waves from the window and leaves behind her companions behind – now revealed to be toys – as she runs from the house to meet a new friend.

What did the judges have to say?

D&AD Jury

The Journey is a wonderfully crafted piece of sound design. It has no music, yet succeeds in conveying a lot of emotion despite never seeing the protagonists face as they run through war torn land. By using the intimacy of foley, breath, well chosen sfx, atmospheres and tonal sound design, the viewer is transported to a visceral kind of experience.
