I also want to say that I think it's awesome that Sven takes annual birthday vacations and that it is creative time! Yay, Sven. (This was created on his birthday vacation.)
From Sven:
For my birthday, I took a "staycation" in the studio. For a few days, I got to eat, breath, and sleep stopmo.You can read the rest of what he wrote at The Scarlet Letters.
I've been wanting to try choreographing a puppet dance. I managed to build a new puppet, compose a song, and work out some steps. Time ran short, though, so I only got five seconds on film.

Gosh, thanks Dot! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteSorry to say, there won't be any more animation with this puppet for a while. I've got several really massive projects that have to be brought to completion first.
The good news, though, is that this clip was done as proof-of-concept for something longer and more ambitious...
I'm pleased with how it turned out, and response has been great -- so I think it's very likely that you'll be seeing something related to this seed begin to sprout a year or so from now. :-)
To my untrained eye, this seems to me it would be a great proof-of-concept. I've watched this several times. I really enjoy it. You really captured the movement and the rhythm.
ReplyDeleteVery nice.
