DREAM CATCHERS

About The Show

The indie animated show of your DREAMS! Created by a team of CalArts Students.

Dream Catchers is a surreal series that follows Star and TV, who are tasked with the job of traveling through people’s dreams to help them with their troubles. Join them, as they learn new things, solve problems, and make new ones!

My Role

I'm a co-creator, showrunner, animator, and voice actor!

With the rise of independent animation, I had the idea to create this show with one of my best friend, Val Yu. After recruiting more friends onboard, the show quickly became the biggest project I've ever started! Working with writers, visual artists, and musicians, my job is to manage the production, and make sure that the episodes are being made on a reasonable but timely schedule.

On top of voicing one of the main characters, I'm also (currently) the only animator on the teeam, creating the layouts, staging, and character acting of every episode. While the show is still a work in progress, we're about half way through the first season, which we plan to contain six episodes!
