Watch to the end to see the final short film! I take on the 2025 Agora 24-Hour Animation Challenge to see how far I can push myself creatively and technically under extreme time pressure. The rules: Create an original animated short film in just 24 hours using the theme words: chaos, time, and switch. No time to second-guess, no room for perfectionism—just raw, fast-paced animation production.
From brainstorming story ideas and boarding till 3:30 AM to battling software crashes and sound design mishaps, I share the entire behind-the-scenes process—including tips for speed-animating, creative shortcuts, and the mindset that got me through.
