WATCH: Chris Romano’s MONSTRO! premieres online!
MONSTRO!
Director: Chris Romano
A rickety scientific expedition ventures down the Amazon River to a dark lagoon, in search of a mythic Creature! ¡Monstro! is a horror story. A love story. A ribald comedy!
Longtime Hollywood Shorts alum CHRIS ROMANO first screened with us during our very first year, with his hilarious short animation DREAMBOY.
Chris has enjoyed a warm welcome back to the festival world with his 3D masterpiece MONSTRO!, a throwback story with a monster from the watery abyss somewhere along the Amazon. The short features a great vocal performance by Emmy nominated entertainment TV reporter & actress Pili Montilla.
Chris created the animation in a collaboration with Side Effects Software, using their popular Houdini software. Read this great article on the making of the short.
