PigPen Theatre/Buffalo Picture House: Bremen Posted on 01 Aug 2012

I recently had the good fortune to work with Buffalo Picture House on Bremen, an animated short film for the PigPen Theatre Co. album of the same name.


The animation mimics PigPen's signature shadow puppetry, and the story follows an old man on his journey to refill the moon. Insanely talented musicians, insanely talented cinematographers, and my own self limping alongside like Igor with some character design. Watch the video - it's absolutely amazing.

Erin R.:

This is beautiful! You are so talented! It reminds me of the animated scene in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows about the Tale of the Three Brothers.

Wylie Elise Beckert:

Thanks Erin! I hadn't seen that sequence yet (because I live under a rock, apparently) but I just checked it out - really awesome faux-shadow puppetry, and I love the Death character. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!
