Before the Alarm / 2025

This project is a short animation that inspired by vivid dreams that occur just before waking, exploring the emotional journey from happiness to anxiety and then to ease as one transitions from sleep to reality. Through shifting light and color—from bright to dark and back—combined with high saturation and strong contrast, it conveys both storytelling and emotional impact.

Software: Procreate, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Premiere Pro
