[YEAR] 2021

DURING MY TIME AT MORTIS STUDIO [LEGENDS TAYLOR JOHNSON AND DUSTYN PETERMAN], ONE OF MY FAVORITE PROJECTS WAS MAKING A STOP MOTION VIDEO FOR DINOSAUR JR. THE BAND WANTED SOMETHING GRITTY AND TACTILE, SO WE WENT COMPLETELY ANALOG, PRINTING OUT EVERY FRAME OF FOOTAGE PROVIDED BY THEIR LONGTIME COLLABORATOR, JOE SALINAS.

IN TOTAL, WE CRUMPLED, TORE, AND DREW ON EVERY SINGLE PAGE, PHOTOGRAPHING OVER 2,400 FRAMES AND ANIMATING THEM AT 10 FPS FOR A UNIQUE, TEXTURED LOOK. THE PRODUCTION SCHEDULE WAS TIGHT, BUT WE MADE SURE TO PULL THIS ONE OFF.

A HUGE THANK YOU TO MAX ALO AND ARTIE TAMAYO FOR HELPING BRING THIS PROJECT TO LIFE.
