Kara's "marionette" doubles

Posted on January 3, 2013 by admin

Our main character Kara lives with a marionette double, who appears on stage in the teaser. Through a recommendation we discovered the marionette workshop Prague where we got in contact with Mirek Trejtnar. We asked him to carve a tiny!! wooden marionette from our drawings and build a stop motion replica with ball-and-socket armature for that marionette, too. Both wooden. Both hand carved. And they came out as real twins! And they are beautiful.
