Ten Thousand Demons
In Joe Laudati's award-winning student short, "Ten Thousand Demons" (1985) a young man is dealing with a problem: divorced parents! He escapes into the art of stop motion monster animation. You will see how stop-motion models are made and how they start out as drawings, get baked (which can stink up the place), and acting it out before animating.
The Glutton
Gulosus (the glutton), is an alluring yet disturbing view of gluttony in contemporary culture. The film is in stop motion, with one photo being taken every 6 seconds, and contains over 130 individual sound effects and foley sounds. The piece draws from the compositions of traditional vanitas paintings and photography. It was also heavily influenced by a genre of youtube called 'Mukbang' (korean for 'eating show'), where people consume mass amounts of unhealthy and idealistic foods for viewers to watch. All of these elements came together to form an opinion on greed and vanity through a relatable but confronting menu.
