"Last Night" is my debut short film, a passion project that has been a labor of love over the course of eight months, from August 2022 to April 2023.
As a director and animator, I have primarily worked on animated music videos, but I felt a deep calling to explore the storytelling potential of animation through a narrative-driven project.
The story of "Last Night" follows a A man's desire for a beautiful stranger leads to a one night stand, where he discovers a terrifying secret lurking beneath the surface. A battle for survival ensues, and the man's fate hangs in the balance as he fights to uncover the truth about the woman and her secrets.

Creating this film entirely by myself has been a challenging yet incredibly rewarding experience. It allowed me to have full creative control and bring my vision to life without compromise. Every frame, every animation, and every sound has been meticulously crafted to evoke a specific emotion and create a cohesive and engaging cinematic experience.

As a director, "Last Night" represents a pivotal moment in my artistic journey. It has allowed me to push the boundaries of my skills as an animator and storyteller, and it has fuelled my passion to continue exploring the vast possibilities of animation as a medium. I hope that this film serves as a testament to the power of animation to touch hearts, provoke thought, and transport audiences to realms where the imagination knows no limits.
