A live action short film that blurs the lines between the whimsical and macabre, Return to Fable Grove is a psychological thriller that explores themes of family dynamics, psychosis, and memory. Through a blend of gritty narrative, campy puppetry and 80's nostalgia, the film tells the story of Eli Walker, an estranged son who returns to his childhood home only to be confronted by his traumatic past. He experiences a warped reality which is manifested through the world and characters of an 80's TV puppet show 'Welcome to Fable Grove'. My roles in the project fell mostly into pre-production and post-production, beginning with the task of concept artist and finishing with marketing designer. My work includes all the Kickstarter merchandising and film poster art. Throughout the production I was also given the roles of Head of Catering and Art Department Assistant, where I would come in my free time to assist with the set building and painting.
