Insects

2016

Worked alongside musician Benjamin Longman to create this animated stop-motion music video.

Story is a loose adaptation of The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka.

Frame of both Insect Gregor and Human Gregor together, showing how the two puppets were animated together in this shot so that the movement of both characters would match when the Insect was composited into the mirror

Title fram for "Insects"!
Early Concept puppet for Gregor Samsa. Original idea was for the puppets to be literally made of pages of the book but at the time I couldn’t find a way to implement this idea so instead the puppets became shadow puppets.
