Bad Habits

This animated short explores the isolating experience of grappling with personal struggles masked by a seemingly carefree exterior. The animation style utilizes fluid, expressive character design and dynamic visual storytelling to depict a protagonist navigating a world where outward appearances often conceal inner turmoil. Set within a subtly surreal and dreamlike environment, the narrative focuses on the internal conflict between performance and vulnerability.

The piece uses music and visuals to convey themes of identity, self-perception, and the pressure to maintain a facade of normalcy. Rather than relying on traditional plot structures, it offers an immersive, emotionally resonant experience that invites contemplation on the complexities of modern life and the hidden battles individuals face. The animation’s distinct visual language amplifies the song's lyrical content, creating a cohesive and thought-provoking work.
