elly's world

These are photographs of a puppet and a set I made while in the second year at uni. You can click on the image to see her close up. There wasn't a really concise narrative, I was just playing with lighting and atmosphere - I was trying to make something quite spooky, and also looking for a way of defining the way I worked. I was also just getting interested in animation. I set myself a title for this project, 'Ladies and Gentlemen', and spun a yarn from there. I think this character is quite mysterious. I'm unsure myself whether she's a sad little creature or a man-eater.
