Cedrix is an animated trailer that explores a possible near future world. After a great oil shortage, scientists around the world work to create geothermal mining industries in the deep sea to supplement the energy shortages. One day while searching for a new location for geothermal mining, a submarine breaks through into an unexplored part of the ocean that holds a unique intelligent life form, Cedrix. Scientists are left with the decision on whether or not to reveal this creature to the rest of the world, or to learn from previous mistakes and protect Cedrix, and their habitat from exploitation.Cedrix illustrates the damages that human industries such as mining have had on the natural environment, and the ways greed has been used to exploit the Earth. As humans look to the future, it is imperative to consider the burden of their needs on society, and how to limit their impact on the rest of the world. Cedrix can be enjoyed by all audiences, but specifically targets the younger audience, who will not only be drawn to the animation and narrative style, but will also be most likely to be influenced by this film to shape their future decisions.
