Midnight Movie Madness

2019

A short scenario inspired by a monkey themed movie marathon.

​

The creature depicted is RoMan from the black and white

B-movie called "Robot Monster". The movie's production  had no budget for an original monster suit, so they put a man in a gorilla costume and put a space helmet from a different movie on him.

​

​

I thought it looked hilarious, so I wanted to pair RoMan with the scale and composition of the movie "Kong Skull island". This movie has a lot of scenes where the speed is almost slowed to a halt. This method puts most emphasis on composition and makes the scenes look more like a moving painting than a film, which I wanted to play around with.
