How every film is hand-scored →

When a social worker visits Gru’s house to assess its suitability for children, chaos ensues. Margo, Edith, and Agnes, along with the ever-mischievous Minions, scramble to give the home a makeover in record time. Their attempts to create a warm and inviting environment quickly spiral into hilarity as the Minions’ unorthodox methods lead to outrageous results. This short captures the Minions’ inventive, albeit chaotic, solutions, blending humor with heartwarming moments of teamwork.

Our read · Home Makeover (2010) reads as a cosy, breathless, grounded animation · family · comedy entry — gentle in intensity, intimate in scope, tender in temperature, redemptive in outlook. Hand-scored on twelve axes of taste — mood, pacing, weirdness, hope, stakes, humour, reality, density, warmth, auteur, intensity, and era — with a derived palette drawn from its dominant cinematography.
