The Old Man and the Bird – the making-of

Have a look behind the scenes of the animated short >>The Old Man and the Bird<< (directed by Dennis Stein-Schomburg). I made the puppet of the bird and animated it (stop motion). We tried to integrate the bird as good as possible into the live action footage that the talented team around Dennis had recorded before. They had also captured a greyball in the life action set, which I was able to use as a reference for the lighting (min 03:45) www.theoldmanandthebird.com
