WHAT DO YOU DREAM ABOUT?
"DRAEMS" is a series of dream inspired animations created by motion artists in the Portland area as part of Design Week Portland 2017.

For my entry into this showcase, I wanted to explore the technicalities of a skateboard that would only be possible to portray in an unrestricted, dreamlike environment. This detailed, virtual assembly gives a look into both the complex particulars of motion graphics and the limitless possibilities of skateboarding itself.
