Head Games

Type: Self-initiated spec animation
Role: Illustration, animation, logo treatment, sound design
Format: 8 second animated bumper with sound

Head Games is an unofficial 8 second spec bumper inspired by the short animated interstitials used by Adult Swim, MTV, and late night television blocks.

The piece repurposes characters and animation elements from a larger personal animation project.

Punk bowler, severed head, and a bowling alley gag that ends with the head smashing into the pins.

After impact, the remains of the head reform into the Adult Swim logo, a quick, stupid, lowbrow network ID.

The aim was to create the kind of short, aggressive animation that hits fast, gets a laugh, and disappears.

Unofficial spec piece. Not commissioned by or affiliated with Adult Swim.
