Creature design

I contributed to the visual development and creature ideation for the Academy Award-nominated feature film "Love and Monsters" (2020), directed by Michael Matthews. The film's unique "Monsterpocalypse" setting required a blend of biological realism and imaginative, over-the-top mutations.

My Contribution: My work focused on the early conceptualization and design of the monsters that inhabit this post-apocalyptic world. The goal was to create creatures that felt formidable and dangerous, yet possessed a distinct personality and evolutionary logic. I explored various textures, silhouettes, and anatomical structures to help define the visual identity of the film's primary threats.

Rough sketches

The task was to offer several options for giant creatures

Michael Matthews liked one of my doodles and we started working on a color image of this snail. The final result you can see in the video below
