Hop-Frog

For this project I teamed up again with the incredibly talented SFX and Make-up artist Julia Sánchez Merino to work on her dissertation at the London College of Fashion. The project is called Hop-Frog and illustrates a poem by the same name from Edgar Allan Poe narrating the story of a mistreated court jester who gets his revenge from his bullying master the King and his knights by organising a costume party where they all end up being burned alive.

This project was a lot of work of both preparation and execution, but I'm really happy with the outcome. This was an opportunity for me to widen the scope of my productions and embark in a larger project which would also involve video. All the planning and preparation proved necessary and did pay off, and having such a professional and dedicated team really made things flow.The team:SFX and Make-up: Julia Sánchez MerinoHair and additional Make-up: Anna María RiveraPhotography, Video, Editing: Jose EsteveModel: Javier Ruiz RamosAdditional Video: Raquel AcostaShot at Simulacra Studios in London.
