YUNGBLUD
World Tour, 2023
Animation Design & Direction
Reza directed this animated concert film for YUNGBLUD's 2023 world tour, bringing to life an original story written by Dominic Richard Harrison (YUNGBLUD). Created as part of the live show's visual narrative, the film expands the emotional scope of the performance through cinematic animation and immersive storytelling.
The story follows a journey through self-doubt, insecurity, and personal transformation—experiences that resonate deeply with younger generations. Guided by YUNGBLUD's original concept, Reza developed a visual language that reinforces the film's central message: that vulnerability is a shared human experience, and that no one is truly alone in their struggles.
As part of the animated content created for the world tour, the film demonstrates Reza's ability to translate emotionally driven narratives into large-scale live visual experiences, where animation becomes an integral extension of the performance itself.
