Project Summary: A passion project of mine, proposal for my graduation film, writing a short story about canned hunting in a steampunk Victorian setting.
My Work: I started by writing a short story, created a prototype for the creatures in my film, animatronics and puppets, and combined all into one conceptual piece. For the owl itself i used the animatronic of a “baby yoda”, used its part and skeleton to make my owl, painted, added clay to create its base features, i then heated to dry the clay. added fathers and made sure the detail werent sdtoping its movement,,
