IT'S A WONDERFUL BINGE
I worked as a storyboard artist on the stop-motion musical segment for It’s a Wonderful Binge, a Hulu-exclusive comedy film starring Danny Trejo and Eduardo Franco. The sequence parodies holiday specials, set in a world where drug use is legalized for one day a year, Christmas. I used Maya to rig and compose each shot for the segment, laying out character poses and camera angles for stop-motion reference. I also designed the stylized flat-wood cutout backdrop of the Christmas town, creating two versions: a traditional snowy village, and a “bingified” version full of humorous drug-themed décor.

IT'S A WONDERFUL BINGE : MOVIE TRAILER
A short trailer for It’s a Wonderful Binge, giving a taste of the film’s irreverent humor, cast, and the world where holiday cheer gets an extra kick.
STORYBOARD PANEL ART
Storyboard panels for the film’s animated musical number, where I staged and posed out each frame in Maya to help the stop-motion team visualize the character blocking, timing, and transitions in this comedic Christmas-town scene.
SET BACKDROP ART
I designed the two-dimensional wooden backdrop used for the stop-motion town set. The first version depicts a classic, cheerful holiday village, while the second is a chaotic, “bingified” version, filled with drug-themed paraphernalia and visual gags that align with the film’s twisted festive tone.
