Winner of the 2020 Golden Globe for Best Animated Feature.

As part of the model shop team, I fabricated lots of background props and set elements. Most of the models were built based off of either concept illustrations or real world photographs.

I had the opportunity to build a lot of props for sequence 2400: “Meeting Gamu.” This scene featured lots of dinnerware. All of the bowls, cups, and spoons had to be individually sized for each puppet. The bowls were hand turned on a lathe and then vaccuformed copies were made using PETG.
