"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. 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.
Synopsis: A sleep deprived artist struggles to stay awake on their mundane subway commute. It’s only a matter of time before they find themselves trapped in a surreal dream where their imagination starts to bleed into reality.
