And so begins the story of Caleb, a happy little boy who receives a camera for his sixth birthday. Enraptured by his newfound interest in photography, he takes pictures of anything and everything, until an unfortunate accident causes him to break his camera.Heartbroken, Caleb can't sleep, tormented with guilt over the loss of his perfect camera. But what's this? A tapping at the window? Caleb opens the blinds to see a strange creature calling itself a sleep fairy named Kipsneed! Kipsneed knows all the boys and girls in the world, and it's his job to help them sleep, you see. And Caleb hasn't been sleeping right at all, has he? Caleb admits that he's crushed over the loss of his camera.Not to worry! Kipsneed, ever a helpful little fellow, promises to fix Caleb's camera if he'll just accompany him to a portal to his home world. There, Kipsneed knows of a factory where they can fix Caleb's camera right up! Surely the strange fellow can be trusted... right?The Kid and the Camera is a short film by GrumbledEntertainment, animated in Blender, but made to look like Claymation. The fact that it's billed as a horror film might spoil the rest of the synopsis, but it's extremely unsettling and a damn fine watch nonetheless.Originally uploaded as part of Night Mind's 2022 Candy Bowl, it was uploaded as its own standalone short in 2023 to the producers' channel. You can watch it here. | |

Too Smart for Strangers | |
The Kid And The Camera (Web Video) / int_236846ce | comment |
Too Smart for Strangers: Caleb tells Kipsneed he's not supposed to talk to strangers, but Kipsneed reasons that because he knows Caleb's name he can't be a stranger. Caleb accepts this at face value. | |

Stalker without a Crush | |
The Kid And The Camera (Web Video) / int_3b4185fb | comment |
Stalker Without a Crush: Kipsneed knows Caleb's name, and knows that he hasn't been sleeping well for a while. While the idea of pedophilia is never ruled out, his main objective seems to be simply luring Caleb to the house so he can kill the boy. | |

Analog Horror | |
The Kid And The Camera (Web Video) / int_4985411f | comment |
Analog Horror: The short is made to look like a cheaply made children's cartoon from the 80s or 90s, with the quality of Caleb's camera matching the time period. | |

Wham Shot: Caleb manages to take one last photo before the kidnapper lays hands on him. It's followed up with another, more disturbing image- his disembodied feet, which the narrator explains were all that was found of him. | |

Too Dumb to Live: Caleb follows Kipsneed to an abandoned house in the middle of the forest in the dead of night, and realizes this probably isn't a good idea. He presses on, and ends up falling into the hands of a stalker, losing both his legs and most likely his life. | |

Nothing Is Scarier: The film contains no jump scares, no screamers, not even any loud noises. Instead, it slowly ratchets up the tension until it delivers its horrifying payoff. | |
