Lullaby Theories: Animated Short Film

Produced by Coat of Arms

Lullaby Theories are a series of animated short films that encourage us to explore the world through science. This episode is about the science of sleep. The team at Coat of Arms approached me with a script, some ideas and free creative reign. It was, and continues to be, one of my all-time favorite projects. The budget was small but it was so much fun to work on.
