The scene that David has Face Time with other

As these two characters ( Min & Brian ) had conversation by using video call and text message in Discord, the animation we would make will have the scene like above image. Thus, I should search for the reference that suitable for it and <Searching>(2018) came to mind.

A 2018 American mystery thriller film directed by Aneesh Chaganty. It is the story of a father tracing his missing daughter's SNS.

In the first of the film, the growth process of David Kim and his daughter Margo, as well as the process of the separation with his wife and Margo's mother, were portrayed simply through monitors. And, surprisingly, it was quite enough to give an impression to audiences.

Showing a family's life in digital world that changes as the technique is being upgraded was groundbreaking direction in film industry.

As Min had conversation with her friend through Discord, she has usually used Discord to play the games with her friends before the ice age. Regardless of the special circumstances of the Ice Age, this reflects how we are living in the 21st century in that the people communicate with others online.
