Man Down is a poignant short film that illuminates a pressing issue—mental health struggles. Through the art of tattooing, it tells the deeply personal journey of one man as his body transforms into a canvas of emotions.

In this project, illustrations were meticulously crafted to resonate with the film's narrative, enhancing the conversation around the impact of toxic masculinity on mental health. This compelling piece strives to spark dialogue and foster understanding, with the illustrations brought to life by Smoke and Mirrors VFX studio, and sound design by Wave Studios' Archie Presley, creating an immersive experience that lingers long after viewing.
