For Instanbul’s IF 2009 independent film festival, Ayse Unal of Anima Istanbul teamed up with compositor Ilhan Poyraz to reinterpret the experience of watching a zoetrope in this deceptively simple promo.
I was intrigued by the process, and Ayse was kind enough to share a little making-of action with us:
Did you actually create a physical zoetrope? Or did you mimic the look of a zoetrope using software?
We did not create a physical zoetrope, but we photographed people on a turntable in eight angles. We then made the film mimicking a real life zoetrope using Fusion 5.3.
We wanted to make a 3D previz before hand, however we didn’t have enough time, so we just shot some photographs in our own studio and came to the conclusion eight angles for the same movement in time is enough for the final film we have in mind.
