Welcome to FilmRider Studios!
★
FilmRider Studios is the creative home of TheJungleBrunch89 — an 80s retro-inspired animated series bringing you whimsical accessories and unique items featuring synthetical musical mascot characters with fast-food aesthetics. We sell collectible merchandise, accessories, and apparel, not food or restaurant services.
Born from a love of nostalgic charm and dreamy 80s vibes, we specialize in hand-crafted and 3D modeled unique items that capture the essence of a dream-like era. Each piece is designed to bring a touch of retro magic to your everyday life.

★ How It's Made ★
Every collectible piece from FilmRiderSTudios, keychains and figurines alike, starts as an original sculpture I design from scratch in Blender 3D. No purchased models. No AI-generated geometry. No outsourcing. Just original character work built by hand, digitally, then brought into the physical world.
Once the model is ready, I handle every step of the finishing process myself:
- 3D modeling — every keychain and figurine is an original sculpture I built in Blender
- 3D printing — each base is printed in-house by me
- Priming & spray painting — hand-applied base coats for a clean, durable finish
- Hand painting — all detail work done by brush, by me
- Resin sealing — finished and protected by hand
This is one-person studio work. Not mass produced. Not a dropship. Every piece that leaves FilmRiderSTudios has been touched, painted, and finished by the same hands that designed it.

★ About My Brand★
What inspired TheJungleBrunch89?
- TJB89 was a title and brand I created in 2019-2014 for a senior project at Stetson University, and it was my goal to create a fictional retro diner universe and character story based on my old illustrations.
- It's influenced by listening to future funk music, vaporwave music, and synth wave music, and the aesthetics and pop culture of the 1980s in America and Japan. Other influences include Michael Jackson, McDonalds, Mac Tonight, Ratboy Genius, Sonic the Hedgehog (& DX Adventure) and Rockafire Explosion.
- I'm passionate about bringing the bold, colorful, and unapologetic spirit of the 1980s into modern life. My products celebrate creativity, individuality, and the joy of self-expression.

How did you come up with the McHippo character?
Did you know he was originally meant to be a pig before he was changed to a hippo? McHippo's original illustration (and his friends) were created in the summer of 2019 when I first began listening to future funk and vaporwave music in early 2018. I was inspired by the entire aesthetic of American and Japanese 1980s McDonalds and Mac Tonight, and he is what originally started my series, "The Animalistic Performers". He's born from my love of vintage animatronics and 80s pop culture and the desire to create something nostalgic from an era decades ago!

Are your characters AI generated?
No. All of my character designs, stories, and illustrations are 100% hand-drawn and hand-crafted by me via the Blender 3D software, Adobe Illustrator, animation, music created in GarageBand, and original illustrations dating back from 2019. "TheJungleBrunch89" series is a labor of love created through traditional artistic methods, not artificial intelligence.
