  • Troubled magic shop employee Zuma has a chance encounter with an unusually tiny mystical dragon. This little lizard is cute and all, but it may be causing more grief than our already angsty protagonist can handle. When a mind-bending malevolent force breaks free from its life of confinement on store shelves, however, the pocket-sized dragon may be the support that Zuma needs to overcome his inner demons.
    My thesis film for SVA! I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I did making it!

    Wow, I...
    I really can't find the words. It's been over a year since I finished and posted this film, and all of a sudden, it's doing numbers that I could've never even DREAMED of getting on any of my animations or art pieces.
    I just... thank you so much for the support and your kind comments, everyone. It means the world to me... it truly does. I'm reading every single one, even if I can't find the words to respond with.
    I'm... so unbelievably thankful that so many people are actually enjoying this little film that I made with my own two hands. Thank you all so, SO much
