Animated Series
The Secret World of Animal Sleep
Join us to watch The Secret World of Animal Sleep from The Smithsonian Channel and find out how the series was made in a live talk with the series creators.
The fascinating sleeping habits of the animal kingdom hint at a complexity we’re only just beginning to uncover with modern science. From birds that take micro-naps mid-flight to dolphins who snooze underwater, activating only half of their brains. Join us as we examine the myriad ways animals sleep – all with original hand-drawn animation by artist Aurélie Beatley. Produced by Anisa Peters and Narrated by Cara Santa-Maria.
The Secret World of Animal Sleep includes 6 short episodes to watch on-demand in your own time.
Meet the creators of the series in a Q&A led by Jim Capobianco, where Aurélie Beatley and producer Gina Hutchinson talk about how this series was created.
