"Method Design was tapped by production company RSA to concept and create this year’s sponsor reel for AICP at the MoMA The AICP awards celebrate global creativity within commercial production. Method Design wanted to create an entertaining piece of design that encapsulates the innovative and prolific nature of this industry. Our aim was to showcase the AICP sponsors as various dancing avatars which playfully reference the visual effects used throughout production. Motion capture, procedural animation and dynamic simulations combine to create a milieu of iconic pop dance moves that become an explosion of colourful fur, feathers, particles and more."

Set inside their home, a beloved hatchback, Pearl follows a girl and her dad as they crisscross the country chasing their dreams. It’s a story about the gifts we hand down and their power to carry love. And finding grace in the unlikeliest of places.

"Music video directed for the charismatic LA-born musician Charles X for his eagerly anticipated new single entitled Can You Do It in mixed 3D/2D animation produced by Eddy and animated at Brunch Studio.

This collaboration is intended to act as a social commentary which aims to cast light on perceived societal expectations and social norms by integrating elements and people from different walks of life.

I sought to merge the typically highbrow sport of horse racing with the commonly misrepresented “mean streets” of Pacoima, the proud birthplace of Charles X, to challenge any stereotypes or preconceptions of race and social class which may exist in modern day society.

I wanted to communicate Charles’ intended message via the lens of an artificial world in my own style of animation."

Through scientific study and understanding, we deepen our connection to the natural world.

"From the beginning of time, to the edge of the universe… and beyond."

"Machines could take 50% of our jobs in the next 30 years, according to scientists. While we can’t predict the future, we can imagine a world without work – one where those who own the tech get rich from it and everyone else ekes out a living, propped up by an increasingly fragile state. Meet Alice, holder of the last recognisable job on Earth, trying to make sense of her role in an automated world"

"What is the connection between Social Networks and Being Lonely?
Quoting the words of Sherry Turkle from her TED talk - Connected, But Alone."

"We are animation die hards and we absolutely love sports. You mix the two together and something magical happens. Partnering with barrettSF and utilizing Blackalicious’ newly recorded sports variation of their famous “Alphabet Aerobics,” we put our skills to the test. Assigning each letter a different style, and quickly transitioning from one vignette to another, the overall piece comes together to feel like a fun-filled dive into the depths of sports terminology."

BE WATER

is an ode to movement
Me and my buddy Spongemagnet made this little piece just for the fun of moving, nothing more.
We are blessed to have the freedom to move in different ways, with our body and in our mind.
Be water my friend.

A battle for peace

A soldier goes to the front during World War I, whose horrors make him realise that the enemy is actually war itself.
The testimony of this soldier stands as a metaphor for the terrible cruelty of war and the desire for peace.
