Matthew Thomas Gillespie 

Canadian political satire, told through animation and music. U.S.–Canada relations, world affairs, and the absurdity in the headlinesβ€”all seen from this side of the border. πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

I'm Matthew Thomas Gillespie, an animation-trained filmmaker with 20 years in the industry as a Post Supervisor/Head of Post Production, story producer, offline editor, colourist, and on-set Production Supervisor.

I write the lyrics, sketch character sheets, and sculpt clay characters. My hybrid approach combines practical stop-motion with AI-assisted imagery and animation, using my own artwork to keep characters consistent across angles. I manually edit each shot in Premiere Pro or CapCut.

My toolkit includes a Canon M6 Mark II, Stop Motion Studio, Kling AI, MiniMax, and Seedance. Techniques vary by film.

If you've just finished watching the news and need to laugh about it, you're in the right place.
