ANIMATION HAS BEGONE!

We are now on the 2nd week of animating, and an almost sacred quiet has befallen the WiredFly studio. We would like to welcome Rikke Rørbech who is gonna stay with us as a production assistant for the next couple of weeks. She cooks wonderful and delicious food for us and as I write this she is out filming black birds so we can study their every move. Welcome, Rikke.



The voyage continues... ...into the time/space continuum!
Godspeed to us all!

The Eye Movie (brought to you by WiredFly).

This li’l video beneath is different shots compiled during some of the different stages of our ”Human Eyes Composite” madness. Hjalte, he who will portray the eyes of the boy, has blue eyes – and we took him to Martin the optician to see if he could wear contact lenses; unfortunately it didn’t work, so we will have to rely on fancy computer colour-grading.

We also shot some test of Ene, she who will portray the eyes of the mother. We got our almost-neighbours Wahlberg to build a helmet that sticks on the head like glue; in that way we could film her eyes perfectly, but alas; there was some technical problems... so we postponed the eye-shoot into the ”undiscovered country” (which is the term the Klingon ambassador uses in the 6th Star Trek film about the future).

You may also notice Anders the storyboard artist taking a wee in the forest in the very end of the film.

The music is made on church-organ – with fancy organ beats and some strange effects!

Godspeed!
