Award-winning animator Nicolas Fong joins Kickin’ It With Tyree to talk about his Sundance-selected animated short HUGS, a playful yet deeply emotional film that explores touch, movement, consent, and human connection through a first-person, roller-coaster-like POV.
In this interview, Nicolas discusses:
Creating HUGS over six years without a script or storyboard
Why hugs became the foundation of the film’s storytelling
The rhythmic collaboration between animation and music
Common misconceptions about animation and the importance of planning
How gentleness and emotional openness can counter violence and toxic masculinity
Nicolas also reflects on what it means to premiere at Sundance Film Festival’s final year in Park City, his journey as an animator based in Belgium, and what he hopes audiences feel when they leave the theater.
