PATRICK McHALE

IN MOTION LONDON 2025 (SOLD OUT)

Writer and filmmaker Patrick McHale is known for creating Over The Garden Wall and his work as a writer and creative director on Adventure Time. Next to these projects he has worked as a storyboard artist on The Misadventures of Flapjack and as a writer on Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio.

More recently, Patrick has shifted from focusing on one project at a time to exploring many directions at once, developing ideas across animation, literature, music, and interactive media. His current projects include The Elephant for Adult Swim, the early stages of an Adventure Time movie, an adult animated sitcom pitch, an interactive puppet theater show, a video game, several short films, and potentially a couple of features.
