Cartoonish Christmas Horror Claymation

Job ID: 39674350

Budget: $250 – $750 USD

I’m reaching out on behalf of my band, The Berdellas, and we’re looking to commission a claymation-style piece for our upcoming Christmas single titled Jingle Bells, Shotgun Shells. We’re going for a twisted, horror-themed holiday visual with a gritty, lo-fi claymation aesthetic — something that captures the spirit of Tim Burton meets grindhouse.

The concept:
The scene takes place inside a squatter house — think dirty, rundown, with a dying Christmas tree in the corner and some dim, flickering Christmas lights strung around. The setting is bleak but still has that grim holiday touch.

All of the band members (we can send reference photos/masks) have been gruesomely slaughtered and are lying dead around the room. Standing above us is a killer in a tattered Santa suit, holding a shotgun in one hand and a handgun in the other — the “Santa” is menacing, maybe even a little deranged. The vibe should be eerie but still a bit playful in that claymation-horror way.

Let me know if this sounds like something you’d be interested in, and I can provide more details or references as needed. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
