Official Selection:

Fantasia Film Festival 2024

Monster Party is a first year student film made for
Concordia University’s Film Animation program.

The film is intended to be a kind-spirited reflection on feeling like an oddball and trying to fit in with peers. The VHS aesthetic is a callback to classic monster films, as well as to the nostalgia of old home movies.

This was an opportunity to experiment with mixed media and blending multiple animation styles. The goal was to get a feel for what animation as a medium could do while trying to adapt my style into each of them.

Each character represents a different style including classic 2D, rotoscope, under camera stop motion, paper cut-outs, live-action animation, and CGI with all the backgrounds being miniature sets and paintings.

I've got a strong passion for both illustration and physical crafting and this guy was a school project experimenting with merging the two.

Photoshop and Clip Studio EX

The main body is polymer clay but the arms and hands are moulded out of modeling clay for poseability.
