Making of TRANMAN (2011)

TRANMAN (2011) was made in stop-motion animation, using a clay puppet filmed using a homemade rostum. The clay puppet was flat, not unlike a gingerbread man, and was animated on a white light box, with the blood added later on the computer using Photoshop. 

Small silicon press moulds were used to make multiple copies of the different mouth shapes and replacements of the puppet.
