About this video

Netflix got in touch with me directly, saying they were looking for six artists to reinterpret iconic scenes from their show Stranger Things. It was, of course, a wonderful surprise as I watched and was a fan of the show. We scheduled a meeting soon after, and they explained their goals: through the innovative use of animation, they hoped to generate buzz around the upcoming season as well as refresh their audience of previous favourite moments and characters. Animation gives an infinity of options in terms of the imaginative aspect, and they wanted each artist to use their personal style and creativity to enhance the visuals. They gave me a list of scenes to choose from, but we also had a fair amount of freedom to expand the selection if needed. I immediately picked the memorable handshake reunion scene between Dustin (Gaten Matarazzo) and Steve (Joe Keery) in the ice cream shop in S3. The friendship, palettes, and energy of the scene would give me a lot to play with. The store is also where we are introduced to Robin’s character (Maya Hawke), making for a great dynamic trio who were definitely my favourite characters in the show. Credits:
