RESFEST Fear & Loathing
August 2007 ––While functioning as a Design Director at Transistorstudios, Munko was given the most excellent opportunity to direct the opening animation for the Resfest10 festival. Being the last piece he'd ever make with good friends Issara Willenskomer,Chandler Owen and the Danish Turbopowered DF1, they all sought to create a portrait straight from the wet darkness within.
The predetermined theme for the festival centered around a family of cute, worldly creatures whom they didn't like so much. So their counterstrike sought to paint the story of how these cutesies were built up from scratch, in the laboratory, piece of flesh by piece of flesh. and Happily, as a result, there were no traces of cuties or cuddles in the final sequence they crafted.
