Out of Words, a stop-motion game

To kick things off with this blog, I’d like to share the animation that I have been working on lately. It’s an unlikely and awesome animation production: a stop-motion game, of all things, called Out of Words, by the studio Wiredfly and Kong Orange, based in Denmark.
Have a look, it’s so beautiful!

These two shots from @outofwordsgame go together and were not initially planned like this. Only the second one was planned (this one below) but when I finished animating it, we asked for feedback from the team. It came out that it was a bit hard to understand what’s going on at this speed and with this tight framing, so Johan Oettinger, the director, decided that I animate a wider, slower shot (the one above) to edit them together into one smooth sequence. You’ll see them edited together when you play the game!
