Description: Two thieves, Pink and Mint, break into the museum to steal a diamond. Both are unaware that they are not the only predator stalking the prize. Under the electric momentum of Whiplash, their paths collide in the museum鈥檚 most secure chamber, building to a stylish and tense climax. As both women reach for the glittering diamond leaving the outcome hanging in the air, the beat drops and the screen cuts to black.

Under Pressure is a high energy music video style animation that features the k-pop hit 鈥淲hiplash鈥� by the Korean singers Aespa. The main focus of the story is the bold beat of the song and syncing the animation to the rhythm including style, timing, and mood. To match the punchy and avante-garde music, the animation uses dark lighting and neon colour palettes to contrast the environment and important details in our animation such as the shiny diamond.
