Frankenstein: Look Book
Set in 2097 in a seemingly Utopian society, Frankenstein and his infamous creature are at odds. Frankenstein, a hardcore trans-humanist, advocates physical perfection and beauty through artificial, unnatural means. The creature stands in opposition. However, in this adaptation there is a twist as the creature is revealed not monstrous but normal looking. The contradiction leaves the audience to question its own society and views of the beautiful and monstrous.

Lemony Snicket's Series of Unfortunate Events: Look Book
My rendition of this non-conventional children's tale is filmed using stop motion animation because the stories possess a dark, sinister quality that go in tandem with a child-like innocence. Using the original book illustrations as inspiration, I went for a very animated, exaggerated world. Since these characters are so colorful and specific, so too are the homes they inhabit. Just like the characters, the sets have a personality and language of their own.
