“Mammoth: Primal Thirst” is a 3D animated surreal fantasy that follows Mammoth the Sunflower lost deep in the desert and searching for anyway to quench his thirst. My name is Matt Check, and I’ve been an artist and a musician the majority of my life. “Mammoth” first manifested in my imagination during the Summer of 2017 a few months after my Dad died. I was faced with the crossroads of whether or not to tend to the garden he would always grow each year. Looking for hope, I decided to rise to the task. By the time late July came, many of the Mammoth Sunflowers I planted looked so tall and strong; it looked as if they were going to pull themselves out of the ground and run off! Thus Mammoth was born into my life. This project has allowed me to create a synergy between my music and my animation, a dream I’ve been following for a while now. This story explores depression and happiness. Mammoth is deprived of what he needs to maintain a healthy life, and progressively gets weaker and more desperate to survive. It is only when we have access to what we need to survive that we flourish and live happier, healthier lives. To me Mammoth represents Hope. My hope is that all that watch this animated short will root for him! This animated short was made for my Senior Capstone Animation class at Bloomfield College in NJ from May 2019 - May 2020. Special Thanks goes to my professors Lynne Oddo, Phil Vanderhyden, Richard Thompson, and everyone that helped me along the way with this animation. I'm eternally grateful for this experience! I hope that I get to take everything I learned during the process of creating this animation with me into the future and keep growing with it all. Peace and Love, Matt
