Stop Motion
projects & fabrication
“I've always been misrepresented. You know, I could dress in a clown costume and laugh with the happy people but they'd still say I'm a dark personality.” - Tim Burton
I love funny things and I love scary things. Animation is everything and cartoons make me feel what the real world can’t.
Self Portrait- circa 202
I’m here and I’m happy, but I’m also so far away. It goes back and forth and back and forth until I’m dizzy. Back and forth. Then I can’t see anything. I suppose I’ll just hang here a while.
my characters are me
My character design approach is deeply personal, with each character reflecting a part of who I am. Through sketching and planning, I infuse my thoughts, emotions, and experiences into each form, creating an authentic connection between my catharsis and the viewer’s experience. I hope that, in seeing these characters, others might feel a bond—sensing the shared emotions and stories that shape my work.
My work brings together a deeply emotional perspective with a love for the horror genre, creating a style that’s both gothic and humor-infused. This blend allows me to explore darker themes with a playful edge, making each piece relatable and accessible. I aim for my characters to resonate with viewers by merging intensity with light-hearted moments, crafting an experience that is as emotionally raw as it is entertaining.
This was my first stop motion project and it was a great experience seeing the process out from start to finish. From sketching character concepts to making the armatures for the body, all the way to pouring the character mold, learning the stop motion pipeline through and through really helped shape my work style for future projects.
