Siren Song

Shadow puppets like you’ve never seen them before! Detailed paper puppets and shadows tell the tale of deadly sirens luring a crew of seamen to their death in this moody short.

 

Supine: a Dream

Supine depicts a woman’s dream, where shadowy figures chase her through a barren city and perform a strange underground ritual.

A solo puppeteer seated on the floor performs with small paper puppets that take on a grand cinematic look as they are projected live onto a large screen.

 

RUNNING TIME: Two 5-minute short forms

TECHNIQUES: Paper and Shadows
