    "abstract": "What does success look like as a student?\r\n\r\nIn this short film, students in higher education across Ireland reflect on confidence, perseverance, first-time experiences, learning, and the small moments that can make a big difference.\r\n\r\nThe student voices featured here were gathered through the HEA Student Success Survey and Focus Groups in 2025 and are shared in their own words.\r\n\r\nThe animations are creative interpretations of those reflections, imagined and produced by second-year Animation students at D\u00fan Laoghaire Institute of Art, Design and Technology (IADT).\r\n\r\nFrom communicating in a second language to returning to education as a mature student, overcoming anxiety, and simply choosing not to quit, these stories explore the many ways success can be experienced.\r\n\r\nEven small moments in college can be a success. What are yours?\r\n\r\nCredits\r\nAnimation, Backgrounds & Compositing \u2014 Arantxa Vara\r\nAnimation & Backgrounds \u2014 Giada Randolfi\r\nAnimation \u2014 Zach Louis Ng Nocum\r\nAnimation & Backgrounds \u2014 Alex  \r\nMusic composition & production \u2014 Darragh Winters  \r\n\r\nSpecial thanks\r\nKarima Dillon\r\nEimhin Mc Namara\r\nRebecca Roper\r\nThe students who shared their experiences",
