    Working as one of three production designers on a short student film, set designing, building and dressing, in the studio and on location."Our story begins with Meredith as a child, experiencing the world afresh with her father Theodore. Even at an early age Meredith is an avid reader and has become attached to a storybook about a young beautiful mermaid. Fueled by the storybook and unable to deal with the struggles of her life she finds herself escaping inside her own imagination. As Meredith ages and things become more sinister she finds it hard to separate reality from the world she has created from herself. The film climaxes when Meredith is forced to face the truth of her childhood and is left at a crossroad between reality and fantasy; the land and the ocean."
