GARAGE SALE

An animal rock band breaks their guitar before their first big gig. Their search for a fast replacement leads them to a mysterious garage sale possessing the instrument they seek - but they'll have to earn it with "a good song." GARAGE SALE is a film inspired by my love for cheesy pop rock music and by the dog days of childhood summer. Conceived during my sophomore year at Butler University, the film started out small and blossomed into an incredible team effort. The arts-and-crafts visual style was exciting to develop, and the musical score we created is equal parts adrenaline-pumping and total cheeseball. It was as joyful to make as it is to watch in motion! There are equal parts of me in Shen, Qat and Cowbell - exploring how the band members' personalities balanced one another was super fun. The hardworking crew is comprised of friends & alumni from The School of Visual Arts (SVA) and other close collaborators - I am especially thankful to Lisa Marr (of indie pop band "Cub") for lending her vocal talents to the film's credit sequence. Enjoy and rock on!! #garagesale #indie #indieanimation #cartoon #shortfilm #animated SOCIALS: Twitter ►   / ragtagstuff   Instagram ►   / ragtagstuff
