Pixel Perfect

I have developed a deep affection for pixel art, both as a designer and an animator. I am enthusiastically exploring new themes and ideas within the realm of pixel art, as it has become an integral part of my personal style.

The core theme of my animations draws significant inspiration from the 8-bit-styled video games I enjoyed playing growing up and even now. These games have consistently evoked a sense of nostalgia and comfort within me, and I am driven to impart that same sensation to others. Even if pixel art is an unfamiliar territory for some, my shorts are designed to be relatable and enjoyable. They aim to bridge the gap between unfamiliarity and delight, making the world of pixel art accessible and fun for everyone.

“Day in the life”

If you were to create a short video about yourself, what would it depict? Would there be a deeper meaning behind your everyday life? How could it serve as a source of inspiration for others? Well, my friends, I've crafted this 60-second 'day in the life' animation, capturing what I consider the most hectic moments of my life as a full-time college student juggling three jobs.

It's a narrative of my daily routine as a college student, which is meant to resonate with anyone who has also experienced stressful periods in their lives.

The tone of the video is playful yet relatable, emphasizing that we all lead busy lives. Ultimately, it's the people and things we return to at the end of the day that provide the support and encouragement we need to keep moving forward on our journey.
