I recently came across this short animation by Andersen M Studio, which uses around 3000 still images in order to create an extract from Maurice Gee's novel, 'Going West'. I can't believe the amount of patience that must have been required from the makers to produce this! The intricacy of all of the paper cut-outs is so precise and delicate; making it beautiful to watch and unravel the different scenes. The entire film was made by hand, using only paper and 10A scalpel blades, and was filmed with 2 SLR cameras, using Dedo lights to light the pages. I loved how quick-paced the film was and the amount of detail that can be seen in every single cut-out from the pages - they've really done justice to the novel's extract in my opinion! The clever use of lighting helped to add atmosphere and drama to the piece, as well as giving it a very professional finish.
This is amazing! So so detailed and such beautiful shapes! The audio adds a dark and dramatic tone of voice and the diction and syntax really reflects the action in terms of rhythm. I can't imagine the patience this took but definitely worth it, what a result!
ReplyDeleteI really love this. The narrator adds a really sinister tone and really makes you feel as if you're involved in the story - the time they must have spent making this really makes you appreciate each little 'window' cut or tree branch. It's really beautiful - I've watched it about five times now!
