Brain Fog is a short film directed by Griffin Owen and Produced by James Plested
I did all of the production design and prop mastering for this project.

Ernest the brain is made up of an MDF body, a glass enclosure with bubble-effect capabilities, the brain itself made by Special effects artist Beets Barlow, and the body has built-in light effects for puppeteering with actors.

Brain Fog is a super fun project with a lot of charm, and I'm excited for our festival run!
