    paper Capstone- 'A Hero's Nine To Five'

    For my senior capstone project, A Hero’s Nine to Five, I contributed across multiple stages of production, serving as Character Designer, Background Designer, Storyboard Artist, 2D Animator, and Production Manager. The short film explores the everyday life of an overworked main character in a boring office job. He is caught reminiscing about his favorite role-playing game at work and begins to daydream. Soon, his office space around him changes into depictions of his fantasy game.
