In 1994 a UFO was sighted and recorded by hundreds as it flew for three days across Africa, even being seen on radar. Among the witnesses of all professions and backgrounds, including airline pilots and flight passengers, the mass sighting when the craft finally landed is the most well known of the incidents. Beings were said to have come out, and a sort of time warp around the craft was noted. The witnesses were deemed by a Pulitzer Prize winning Harvard psychiatrist to be truthful, and all still adamantly stand by their words to this day.

I combined every publicly available detail taken from interviews with the 62 witnesses. The details I made sure to include were:

-the sounds they described (electrical buzz that changed in volume; flute like noise)
-smaller silver crafts suddenly alternating in color from red, to green, to blue, to violet
-the UFO and it’s occupants briefly appearing in different, but nearby, locations; as well as the diagonal run that looped
-“alien” with “wraparound eyes" getting within arm's length of the observers

I got my inspiration to animate this after watching documentaries The Phenomenon and Ariel Phenomenon, which gave me these intensely vivid dreams for two nights. I couldn’t get the imagery out of my mind, so I’ve been obsessively working on this animation for the last 2 and a half weeks. I branched out and watched every available interview to add as much authenticity as possible. I can say I really brought that vivid mental image to life. 🛸👽
