I'LL NEVER BE LONELY AGAIN

I'LL NEVER BE LONELY AGAIN is a 2020 comedy brickfilm by Ben Young. It follows a man who sees an infomercial for a product that promises to cure the user of loneliness, which he purchases and uses to grow a new friend, who soon begins to cause trouble. It is shot with the multiplane stop-motion animation style that Young began using with WHERE IS MY DOG PIKO?? in 2020, and it expands on the style by adding digital elements and compositing created using Blender. It was originally conceived for the contest Septemberfest 2020, but was not completed until a year later. It was chosen to be featured on the front page of Newgrounds on September 16, 2021.
