This project combines the traditional format of sequential art with motion design. Articulate movement, panel arrangement, and fixed dialogue cues were key tools in conveying a lucid narrative. Instead of requiring viewers' attention for a fixed duration, a 3-second loop rewards a wandering, curious eye. The story itself depicts undead characters Morton and the Ghost as they discover an abandoned cryogenic chamber. They debate whether to open it, and the result is... juicier than expected.
