In 2017, Toronto animator/filmmaker Noam Sussman decamped to the Estonian Academy of Arts to pursue his master’s degree in animation. The result was “Dream Cream”, a comedic look at dark themes including boredom, greed, and addiction.
A big hit on the festival circuit, the five-minute film was created under the mentorship of Priit and Olga Pärn primarily in 2D digital animation (TVPaint) interwoven with stop motion and glimpses of live-action.
