2D Animation/Storyboard/Background

Original Storyboard

2023

Backgrounds

My first short animation that I build from the ground up over the year of 2023 from March-October. It was the biggest project I have ever taken on by myself.

My Role.
It started as a concept on what would happen if you could see your subconscious and took on it own plot originally including a lot more characters and plots but was slimmed down for time to just focus on the main two characters.

The storyboard went through 5 different version. The characters were based on an original unfinished short called ‘An Interview with a Subconscious’ in which it was just the subconscious with his iconic design talking about how much he hates people for never listening.

The Animation and Backgrounds took up the most time, taking up 4 months of the project between rough animations, drawn and cut backgrounds and a lot of rework through feedback and run time constraints.

Overall it was a great learning experience and taught me a lot about the foundations of the animation product line. There is a lot of work I would love to redo one day because I believe it would be better with a fresh retake but for now it’s my proudest solo piece.
