MONSTERS - A MOTION POEM
I was commissioned by the Poetry Foundation to create and direct a film based on a short poem. I wanted the film to evoke an eerie, hypnotizing atmosphere tiptoeing on the edge of dream and reality.
I worked on imagining a story based on a poem by Dorothea Lasky, from storyboard to previsualizing the film. Method Design and I developed a particle system that allows to control Van Gogh like paint stroke “flows” throughout the scenes.
Monsters garnered a few awards including AICP’s Motion Design and Graphics award.
