We Dared to Write
Jeff Choi served as animation director on this sixty-minute Project Witness documentary, drawn from diaries kept by teenagers during the Holocaust. Elaion Studio produced the segment on Yitskhok Rudashevski, also released as The Little Giant of Vilna.
The film premiered at the Museum of Jewish Heritage in Manhattan in July 2025.
What we do
We create documentary sequences, testimony films, historical reconstructions and media for museums and exhibitions. Each project starts with the source material, the audience and what the film needs to communicate.
