This was my university thesis animation, spring 2020. "The two main intents for this project is first, to be able to share my life and experiences with my audience. Secondly, I not only desire for a personal connection with my viewers but for the audience to have a sense of togetherness with each other. Growing up is something I had a difficult time coming to terms with. It is a transformation we must all undergo, but as I continued going through change after change, my contempt for the idea intensified, negatively affecting my overall disposition. Through animating what this situation felt like, I can vividly explain and release those repressed sentiments. Likewise, those facing the same struggle may find solace in knowing that they are not alone. My art caters to me, but my hope is that it can work to serve others, as well."

This is a 2020 short pilot episode created within 4 months. I had the tasks of asset designing, animating 9 out of 26 scenes, lining, and providing color support. This episode introduces a wanna-be villain protagonist Mako and his trusty shark dog Mendoza as they set their sights on Bulkhead Beach.

Song used "Still with You" by Jeon Jungkook I wanted to practice my values and light source. However, while I drew I was listening to this song and I figured the scene would benefit from some small animations.

I did this as part of a group commission to promote a woodworker's YouTube channel.
