THE MASTER OF DAILY DISGUISE
Originally for Great Big Story
Cinematographer
For 365 days, Hollywood prop maker and art designer Michael Gump — aka Bob Bugs — turned himself into a different character every day, creating an evolving visual diary through elaborate facial disguises, color palettes, costumes, and found objects.
This Great Big Story profile follows Gump inside his daily creative ritual, where improvisation, humor, and an obsessive commitment to making something new transform an Instagram experiment into a year-long work of performance art.
