Director Statement

Most of the visuals funny enough came from my dreams or daydreams with the story being thought of after that. The idea to make a story about my insomnia, came from a challenge to make a story that was truly personal. What 'Sleep to Dream' means to me, when you have a issue you'll be prescribed medicine to help fix it and even if that problem worsen you'll continue to listen to doctor's orders. You should of course listen to your doctor, so I tried to express my frustrations through my film and I'm very satisfied on how it came out.
