The Rival Ring (2010)

(has timed music)

 

 

A jealous ring and its jewelry gang attack and destroy their creator’s new project: a clay puppet!

Pixilation and stop motion film made with my friend Ming over a couple of days for a class project at RISD. The assignment: make a monster movie!  Featuring an all classical score: Haydn, Janacek, Satie and more.  (Just a silly student film. No copyright claimed on the music used.)

Created at the Rhode Island School of Design. Monster Class Wintersession 2010.
