What a journey it’s been. I could not have imagined the life it would have when we started it back in 2020.
Very happy to be having its online premiere with a Vimeo Staff Pick Premiere. Meghan, Ina, and the team are repping online short film curation with style and sharp eyes, and that feels especially important right now in the sea of content we’re all swimming in. Putting my first films on Vimeo helped get my career started, so this feels particularly meaningful

Shout out to everyone who worked on this film with me.
Adi Goodrich, I still remember calling you from a bike shop in downtown LA and saying, “We gotta make a stop-motion set on Chung King Road!” Thank you for designing such a beautiful world for this short, and for always being the voice of inspiration when I was exhausted and ready to give up.
Emily Franz, thank you for your incredible talent and for creating such a beautiful miniature world and characters. Meaghan Ross, thank you for your impeccable miniatures.
To all the animators, it was a gift having you on this weird little film. I’m sorry our set tables were janky and the sets were so large, but I hope you had fun: Alfonso Estrada, Akash Jones, Daniel Olivas, Sarah De Gaudemar, Evelyn J. Ross, Eileen Kohlhepp, Shea Ramsey, and Charles D’Avignon.
Aaron Beckum, thank you for your 9th-inning save on the edit. David Kamp for the impeccable sound design, foley, and mix. Elizabeth Warn and Becky Van Cleve for Ace wardrobe. Sean Lewis for the beautiful matte paintings. Colin Thomas for the fly animation. Kaitlyn Battistelli for the final color. Adi Goodrich, Emily Franz, and Patrick Blanchard for the set build.
Thank you to Rooftop Films for the post grant that helped get us over the finish line, Autour de Minuit for their distribution support, and to Chung King Road and all the friends on that street who inspired this film.
This one’s for you.
Enjoy the film, and share it if you do. 🍊🎾
A runaway robot vacuum wanders into LA's Chinatown and finds unexpected friendship with an elderly rabbit. To the tune of Debussy’s "Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun," a meditation on place, connection, and the gift of every day unfolds.
"Tennis, Oranges" makes its online debut today! You’ll find the full film along with director’s commentary from Sean at the link in bio 🐰🍊

He was a rare gem. I was lucky enough to work with Matt and Tim of Sons & Co. on both our Sing-Sing website, and my personal website. And was always blown away with how they worked and what they made for us. Matt was the type of confident, dryly funny, patient, thinker of a designer, that feels rare these days. We were always tapped in to the same pool of references, even obscure abstract animators, and he would always make me laugh even on a call about a Django backend bug.
It was a gift to have experienced his talent and gotten to know him through our collaborations. I have so much respect for his legacy as one of the most gifted designers and ace human beings out there. I wish we had had more time to collaborate again.
Adi and I are gutted, for the terrible loss for Tim and Kate, their studio and family, and promise we will carry Matt, and the inspiration he gave us, in our work and in our thoughts for years to come.
RIP Matt Arnold
‘It was really fun documenting the making of that record, I had a Super 8 camera with me as much as I could. We ended up with so much footage that the edit basically became an excuse to cram in every moment we loved, which is probably why it feels so upbeat and a little too fast at times. I was just trying to match the feeling and brightness of the song. With an animation studio set up in Seattle, we also added some hand-drawn watercolor animation to the bridge and chorus with my friend and fellow animator, Britta Johnson. I can’t believe it’s been 15 years, time for a new montage?’
We were brought on as the Communication Designers for, an architecture biennale in Columbus, Indiana, a town rich in mid century modern architecture with icons like the Miller House, the Saarinen church, and the I.M. Pei library.
This cycle’s theme was Yes And, and taking a cue from that improv mindset, we created 13 short animations, one for each installation, using iterative, improvisational movement to reflect the design process. Inspired by Saul Bass, Sister Corita and the patterns of Alexander Girard, who even designed a full street of storefronts here, we told each story using only mid century inspired shapes and patterns.
Music was equally spontaneous. Our frequent collaborator jammed in the studio for a week, creating 13 tracks with their own rhythm and personality, no notes, just pure flow. We then wove in edited interviews from the architects themselves.
For the 2d animation, I teamed up with ace Australian animator, whose timing and movement in flat 2D brought each piece to life. We learned to let go of over direction and embrace “shape jazz,” letting ideas evolve freely. Will joined our studio for almost 5 months to create this staggering amount of animation. Could not have done it with anyone else. Dude slays.
Huge thanks to Mikey, Will, Adi,, and the team at Exhibit Columbus for being such open, collaborative partners. Watch all 13 animations on the Exhibit Columbus YouTube channel or check out more at Adi will be sharing more in depth look at the signage and other elements of this fun project soon.
