“‘Don’t Sleep On The Subway’ is an animated short film that I pitched and directed as part of a collaborative effort within OCADU’s Animation Studio House. The objective of this short was to serve as a visually captivating spectacle that would showcase the amazing talents of the emerging artists on this team. Through dedicated teamwork, we created a chaotic and whimsical amalgamation of diverse art styles and animation techniques that depicts how creativity unleashed can manifest itself even in the most mundane circumstances. What initially started as a mere academic assignment evolved into a passion project that fostered a profound sense of community and a newfound enthusiasm for collaboration.”
