It’s only fair that if I’m going to make you all wait for The Taking Tree to drop that I give you a hint of the insanity stuffed into its six-and-a-half minute runtime.

The teaser is also available without the purple theater frame on the Planet Hex YouTube channel, which is linked below.

Enjoy!

Going into 2026, I made it a goal of mine to give Planet Hex its own aesthetic on social media. I want to be more productively active around the web, and developing a retro video game style will, I believe, help what I’m putting out there into the void stand out.

The first objective in this ongoing mission was a new production company logo, something that’d take what Devon Whalen and I brainstormed and she illustrated and push it even further. Using Aseprite, I produced a simple animation in the style of an NES game. I created the music in Logic Pro with the help of Jacob Calta, who has composed the music for EYES ALIGHT as well as THE TAKING TREE.

This was my first animation in Aseprite and first time working seriously on music since BEDBUGS ATE MY DREAMS! My hope is to take this design and build upon it over time. In the same way you see a jump in graphics quality between 8-bit NES games and 16-bit SNES games, I hope that the gradual changes you will see reflect my improvement in filmmaking and art more broadly.

I’ve got a few more posts in the pipeline, so stay tuned and tell your friends… keep watching the skies!
