Stuttgart Animated Week just wrapped up and you might be missing the festival vibes on our feed already. But don't fret, we have a little gem for you 🌟
What do we love most about @fmxconference , @itfs_festival_stuttgart & @animationproductiondays ? Bringing people together 🫶
In this case we were able to document two very special meetings.
@animationsinstitut student and puppet animator Bilal Yiğit İnal ( @bilalyigitinal ) had the chance to be the student guide for stop-motion legend Will Becher ( @will.i.animate ) and was able to take a closer look at @aardmananimations puppets for Wallace and Gromit.
Tanja Lange ( @tannerle ) from @m.a.r.k.13tm met Animationsinstitut's own Jan Pinkava during FMX 2025 and got an autograph for her little Remy, which she brought to the conference.
➡️Watch the reel and enjoy!

Super simple wire armatures - perfect for little clay characters.
I’ve added plastizote with hot glue for the pelvis chest and head core. Limbs are wrapped with white camera tape for added durability and something for the clay to stick to. The feet are made with some thin plastic sheeting which I cut to size then hot glued to the wire... I’ve drilled a tiny hole in each so I’ll be able to pin the feet down if required.

A week ago today Farmageddon received an Oscar nomination! I still can’t quite believe it. Many of the very creative and talented people who made it are on insta... Check them out and wish us luck for 25th April 2021 x
