Mokapzu Park

Dystopian tourism

An ill-advised experiment in future-tourism, hundreds of unlikely motion-captured creatures resurrected, a group of scientists pushing at the boundaries of time and nature, a family of unwitting guests missing.

From the dying embers of our planet smoulders the studio team’s latest creation. Opening with a series of retro optimist graphics, this dystopian vision was created largely due to the loan of a motion capture suit.

THE FILM

The team hired an actor to create the lolloping and sometimes frenzied movements of the genetically modified animal characters, an exercise carried out with the motion suit, in the car park behind our old studio building.

"The idea for Mokapzu Park germinated from Art&Graft being loaned a motion capture suit. This Sparks was about building a new world, playing around and being silly while integrating layers of craft."
