Hooked: 24 Hour Animation Challenge 2023
Above is the 30-second animated short film I and a team of 4 other college students created in a 24 hour time frame for the 2023 ToonBoom 24 Hour Animation Challenge. We were given a prompt at the start of the 24 hours, and developed the entirety of the storyline and animation as a team. I was the lead character designer, as well as lead cleanup artist. The prompt was to "show the potential of animated film making as a thank you to our incredible artform."
This project features the work of myself along with Purdue students Andy Sliwa, Brandon Chao, Mike Kingston, and Liam Miller, with the support of Professor Nasheet Zaman. Out of 431 teams all around the world, our team tied for 118th in the contest.

Cleanup
As lead cleanup artist, I both cleaned rough animations and helped to establish a cohesive animation vision for the creative direction of the project by working with my teammates and giving advice.
