Old Fern design maquette for Henry Selick's Shadow King. She was a fun character, we had a novel approach to her design in which she was done as a bas relief and not a sculpture in the round. She was also animated this way, it was really cool looking. #oldfern #oldlady #basrelief #flat #puppet #maquette #clay #shadowking #stopmotionanimation #stopmotionpuppet #stopmotion #cinderbiter #shademaker #disney #pixar #henryselick #charactervisualdevelopment #donebyhand #foundation #art #sculpture #artoftheday www.bardstudio.com
Cuzzy Bell puppet hands, master sculpts for Henry Selick's Shadow King. The hands on all the characters in this film were very important since it was all about hand shadow puppets and we wanted to do all the shadows practically. #cuzzybell #shadowpuppets #hands #puppet #masterpattern #maquette #clay #shadowking #stopmotionanimation #stopmotionpuppet #stopmotion #cinderbiter #shademaker #disney #pixar #henryselick #charactervisualdevelopment #donebyhand #foundation #art #sculpture #artoftheday www.bardstudio.com
visited cinderbiter, a stop motion production company in SF
and it was pretty mind-blowing. just the level of detail that goes into a stop-motion film is UNBELIEVABLE, and it was so cool to see how all of the machinists, sculptors, lighting technicians, and cg animators fit together into this huge picture. wish i had pictures but they're so secretive, i had to sign a confidentiality waiver and everything. lou romano was there, just chillin and painting a set, who i found out after did a ton of design work for pixar AND was the voice actor of linguini in ratatouille.
it was amazing, and also weirdly terrifying because i want so badly to be able to work on something like that in the future yet have a hard time believing ill ever make it.
