Every animator’s origin story starts somewhere. Animation has taken me from my garage workshop all the way to streaming networks and beyond, and now I get to share some of that with local students 🎬✂️

Wowzers, what an incredible response! Once again we're humbled at how many amazingly talented individuals applied for this year's internship. If only we had more people to run this with us, then we'd bring everyone onboard that needs this experience. We're going to officially close down the submissions for applicants so we can focus on who would benefit the most from this year's program. But a huge thank you to everyone who shared our posts and spread the word and took the time to apply. It's always so cool to meet new creatives!

When Paper Brain was just starting as a full time animation studio in Houston, Texas many years ago, one of the goals on our "animation bucket list" was to make an animation for the show that was such a big part of our childhood, Sesame Street. Fast forward to 2025 and we can say that this year marks the tenth year Paper Brain has been making animated letter and number films for Sesame Street and the Sesame Workshop. We can't think of a better way to celebrate that than sharing our most recent number film, "Number 8 Space." Airing on the ninth episode titled "A Trip to the Moon," this animation follows eight astronauts on a number-filled voyage to the moon. The score was done by composer Gregory Pepper, and the confident voice over from Mission Control was done by Violet Ray. Lisa Ray fabricated many of the paper assets, and all the characters were made with real construction paper, then composited into 3D paper and cardboard environments using After Effects.

// BERMUDA TRIANGLE MUTATION // The Howler Mutations Laboratory intercepted a wave of bizarre transmissions from somewhere off the Coast. Electromagnetic spikes. Disrupted radio chatter. A faint but undeniable rhythm pulsing beneath it all. We traced the signals and twisted up a killer collection celebrating all the mystery and intrigue of the Bermuda Triangle. It’s a fever dream of vivid color, warped patterns, and gear humming with otherworldly energy. This isn’t just a drop—it’s a dispatch from the outer edges of the map. Gear up accordingly.
