Brunch, but make it stop-motion.
Using real products from TK Maxx stores, we built a series of playful brunch scenes and brought them to life frame by frame.
Paper can do a lot.
Papercraft lets us build mini landscapes and worlds with real texture and personality.
Here’s a reel of some of the paper worlds we’ve built to life over the years.
Great animation starts with great direction.

A fresh take.
We brought this project for Tropicana to life using stop-motion animation and vibrant handcrafted sets.
Bright, playful and packed with personality.
AI vs handmade.
One is generated in seconds.
The other is built and animated frame by frame.
But when it comes to texture, light, and the tiny imperfections that make things feel real…
We’ll always love the handmade version.
Let’s clear some things up.
Myth: Stop-motion is slow.
Reality: It’s precise.
Myth: It’s outdated.
Reality: It cuts through a feed full of sameness.
Myth: It’s messy.
Reality: It’s handcrafted.
Believe the work, not the myth.
See for yourself.
