Invasion

Invasion is a graphic and sensory experience that is rare to perform. When Ugly Mac Beer came to see Hugo Ramirez, then director at Studio Moustache, was born a unique animation project. First, the project was written and then built by a classic storyboard. The cynical and insolent concept of making the clip by diverting rushes from several midnight movies from the 60s to 80s came next. This approach came to the idea of Hugo when a student, for fun, he hijacked sequences of pornographic films to create strange test animated sequences.

This time, there is a question of the end of the human species that would cause... humans. Contagious and irreversible self-destruction leading men to their disappearance.

When the idea was chosen definitively, he made a montage based on his storyboard. Then with his team, he embarks on painting the film picture by picture. In total, more than 5000 images had to be realized in order to complete this project. At the same time, the musician UGLY MAC BEER reworked his song to make a remix that could harmonize perfectly with the image. So it's a creative ping-pong game that set up. The film has been rewarded and selected in several international festivals.
