With animation, almost anything is possible. And in this day in age, there are so many styles and forms of inventive moving design. In today’s episode, we’ll be exploring many modes of animated dance films.
From gravity defying claymation to the expressively complex technology of 3D generated imagery-- it’s amazing to see how animators are bringing their own spin to choreography for the characters they create for the screen.
As we dive into this wondrous world of animation, Jen sits down with dance filmmaker, Wilkie Branson, talking about his recently completed film, Tom, as well as learning about how he gravitated towards incorporating a handmade aesthetic to his films.
