In this experimental animation I wanted to tell a story using only symbols and color while capturing the rhythms and pace of city life. I did this by animating to real audio that was recorded on the streets of New York; in bars, clubs, subways and the back of taxi cabs. The animation was done using an animation app on my iPhone. The result is Saul Bass meets Bright Lights, Big City, a cartoon modern take on city nightlife.
