Experiencing Interruptions?

"Plastic Perils of the Pacific"

When a plastic bottle destroys his home, a little crab goes on a journey to remove it from the ocean. He meets other sea creatures along the way, helping them out by getting plastic trash off of them. No dialogue, meant for young and old alike.

Director Statement

I strive to work with others to make a brighter future for the generations of Earthlings yet to come through my animation and personal practices. I believe that we can all make positive differences that will preserve the ocean and its denizens.
