The Old Man and The Sea (1999) dir. Russian animator Aleksandr Petrov

This beautiful little scene took an insane amount of work to create. Each and every frame of this movie is an oil painting on glass, a technique mastered by only a handful of animators in the world. By using his fingertips instead of a paintbrush on different glass sheets positioned on multiple levels, each covered with slow-drying oil paints, Petrov was able to add depth to his paintings. After photographing each frame painted on the glass sheets, which was four times larger than the usual A4-sized canvas, he had to slightly modify the painting for the next frame and so on. It took over two years to paint each of the 29,000+ frames.
