I’ve thrown a Halloween / Haunted House party for 21 years. It started in college when I would get Art Students together as their R.A. and force them to socialize. Years later, I transitioned from doing printed flyers into doing animated flyers. Here’s this years 90’s-themed submission.

2025 Grim Social animation. An annual exercise to make something for myself, and hopefully, learn something. This year’s was a combination of traditional techniques from my career (3D, Editorial, After Effects) but stretched my legs with the addition of Ai generated footage, too. #grimsocial #motiondesign #motiongraphics #halloween #adobe #aftereffects #ai #horror #monster
It’s true! @theheistfilms / @thinkingbox has expanded to include a Chicago office! We’re having a TIME seeing one another for the random topics, self-made nicknames, lunch debates, and most importantly- rapport and collaboration. Big things are happening and coming your way!
On February 13th, we welcomed the missing piece of our family—Rudy Gold Coleman. She’s absolutely amazing, just like her incredible mother, @marta_x_coleman , who brought her into the world with incredible power and effortless speed. I couldn’t be prouder of my girls. After our long IVF journey, we finally have our rainbow 🌈 . Everyone is happy, healthy, and running on little sleep—but our hearts are so full. 💛🧡
Had to get one last pic before we took the tree down. Baby-baby is due mid-February. 🥹 So much love and adoration for @marta_x_coleman - an unparalleled strong woman who took us thru this IVF journey 🧡 #ivf #fertility #fertilityjourney #punk #saltnpepa #pushitrealgood #beetlejuice #jerseymikes #harleydavidson #grimsocial #darthvader #pretzels #godzilla #baby #sunshine #microsoftteams #landcruiser #baldeagle #garthalgar #itsagirl #bibfortuna #kurtvile #ipod
This years Grim Social Halloween Party animation is here! I’ve been doing this party for 23 years straight… very wild to think about all the iterations / scales / and friends that have attended. Last year was the first year that kids started attending! It was a blast…! Can’t wait for this years version!
We’re attending the infamous @fearhellsgate - a personal and fan favorite that never disappoints! Slide into the DMs or comment if you want to join! Happy Halloween!

For the last 3 years, I’ve been organizing a yearly tradition called Give-A-Gif with the talented creatives at @millchanneldesign & @millchannel . The brief is simple: create a loop-able, loosely holiday / winter themed design. That’s it. Every year, the team delivers incredibly different, sometimes funny, and always excellent submissions. We then go over them together and have a nice send-off to the holiday break. Some took this as an opportunity to level up their technical skill sets, showing their desire to do more 3D work. Others chose to use software that’s not in our traditional pipeline. And everyone made sure to do something they don’t get to do with “client work .”
Attached is my submission. A simple collage, but one that was fun to create. Happy Holidays everyone! 💜
Grim Social, our annual Halloween and Haunted House party is here! This years invite is a bit late… but we hope you enjoy, regardless! This year, we’re visiting @midnightterrorhaunt in nearby Oak Lawn.
Looking forward to another ghoulish time with friends and fiends! #grimsocial #halloween #hauntedhouse
Ramona. We celebrate you every day- but especially on your birthday. We’ve enjoyed every minute of your 3 years and look forward to a lifetime of joy you bring to us and others. 🧡🧡🧡
