Last month, Fox Searchlight and GenArt sponsored a contest for inspiring filmmakers and designers:
The competition was to create four short films tied in to Wes Anderson’s stop-animated FANTASTIC MR. FOX. Each video should demonstrate how to make your own Halloween costume based on one of the characters from the movie. MR. FOX is based on the popular children’s book by Roald Dahl.
Below are the winners. Bravo, Max. Remember that our annual Halloween costume contest is underway. Maybe you will be inspired… or will figure out a costume design to rip off.

Sabeen and Melissa tell us their video is playing sluggishly; Fox Searchlight is working on the problem.
