This stop-motion animation explores the whimsical idea of inanimate objects leading hidden lives when no one is looking. "The Midnight Movie Club" offers a playful narrative of my toys coming to life at night, gathering together to enjoy a cozy movie night—an intimate celebration in the stillness of darkness. The party is quiet, careful not to disrupt the human world, yet filled with magic and camaraderie that only toys can share.
The story draws inspiration from childhood fantasies: What if toys had their own secret life? What kind of personalities would they have? Here, I envisioned them not as chaotic revelers but as calm, mindful movie-goers, sharing a sense of unity through film—a universal language even for silent objects. Their secret screening speaks to the joy of togetherness and the beauty of small moments unnoticed by the outside world.
