Making Of PAPERMAN
Followed by a presentation and Q&A with the filmmakers.
Join John Kahrs, Director, Patrick Osborne, Animation Supervisor and Jeffrey Turley, Art Director for this special VES London presentation.
Introducing a groundbreaking technique that seamlessly merges computer-generated and hand-drawn animation techniques, first-time director John Kahrs takes the art of animation in a bold new direction with PAPERMAN. Using a minimalist black-and-white style, the short follows the story of a lonely young man in mid-century New York City, whose destiny takes an unexpected turn after a chance meeting with a beautiful woman on his morning commute. Convinced the girl of his dreams is gone forever, he gets a second chance when he spots her in a skyscraper window across the avenue from his office. With only his heart, imagination and a stack of papers to get her attention, his efforts are no match for what the fates have in store for him. Created by a small, innovative team working at Walt Disney Animation Studios, PAPERMAN pushes the animation medium in an exciting new direction.
