Sleep Outreach Project: The Dangers of Sleep Deprivation

Sleep deprivation and short sleeping can result in brief microsleeps, poor concentration, fatigue, and diabetes. Sleep deprivation was responsible for the Exxon Valdez oil spill and Chernobyl nuclear reactor accidents. This video dramatizes the negative effects that can result from not getting enough sleep. This video was made using stop motion animation and Legos for my sleep outreach project at the University of California, Berkeley Psychology of Sleep class with Prof. Matthew Walker

Lego Sleep is already on youtube and can be viewed by searching "Lego Sleep" on youtube. The film "The Dangers of Sleep Deprivation was something I threw together in case my partner ran out of time to do the voiceovers. Thankfully he did finish and produced the film Matt showed in class. It's posted on a "joint" account because he was the only one to ever have the finished project, and since time was running out we just posted it over there. I hope you enjoyed both films!
