How To: Sleep is an analogue horror inspired multi-media shortfilm. It was the last production I was apart of at University and the first as director. I originally was inspired by analogue horror shorts on youtube which combine the found footage aesthetic with CRT/VHS 80's styled TV commercials. I pitched in September of 2022 the idea of what if an advert teaching dummies the basic way to sleep gets corrupted and suddenly becomes a horror film. Unfortunately trying to explain this genre of film felt to me difficult to a board of members who have most likely not seen analogue horror; so above shown is the vertical slice I animated which I hoped would explain my idea visually. A weekend later, I was thrilled to hear that my film was one of 11 films picked out of over 40 to be selected as a third year production. The film is currently submitted to festival so I cannot show it as of the moment.
