    Very interesting. I've seen another video like this but this one has more depth (i.e. balloon, hang-gliding)
    No post-production? I'm confused by this statement. Please explain.

  • Damian Arezzo 2 years ago
    excellent job man.. i like it so much..
  •  
  • Stéphane Augé 2 years ago
    A pure and simple "copy past" of te work of Dokugyunyua who did an excellent stop motion movie: "Stop motion with wolf and pig" you can find easilly on youtube.
    They should at least name the guy!
  • Raffaella Traniello plus 2 years ago
    Dokugyunyua invented a technique. They did another movie whit the same technique.
  • Ricardo Tomasi 2 years ago
    The concept, execution and even some parts of the script are clearly imitations. It's so similar you can't say it's just a "reference", it's not just the technique - stop motion with pictures has been around for decades (PES rings any bells?).
