Sleepocalypse - Save Dement, Save The World! [Official-ish Trailer]

An Outreach Project by Kellen Asercion, Max Wernecke, Adrian Sierra, and Ana-Karen Zavala-Zimmerer | Return To Outreach Projects 2010

In the year 2028 the evil UC Berkeley has taken over the world and controls every aspect of our society. They have discovered the dark power of sleep debt and are depriving the nation of sleep education.

However, one hope remains. A young and dashing Dr. Dement, immortalized through good sleeping habits, leads a small underground resistance fighting to educate people about sleep. To thwart this threat, Berkeley has sent a highly trained assassin back in time to kill Dr. Dement and eliminate the final threat to the Berkeley empire. Fortunately, Dr. Dement has gotten wind of the plan and has trained his own elite super-soldier to send back in time and guard his younger self.

Will Dr. Dement survive to lead the world out of the clutches of evil UC Berkeley? Or will the world be doomed to lead a zombie-like existence deprived of sleep knowledge?

Only one man can save us from drowsiness...
