Olipa Hieno elokuva! Pidin siitä miten melankolinen tuo ukko on ja miten se loppukohtaus ei jäänyt siihen tanssimiseen, vaan sen ukon melankolinen tunne pysyi elokuvassa osana tunnelmaa loppuun saakka vaikka tuommoinen vapautus välissä... Hienoa! Missä olet opiskellut tuota? Itse semmoinen hyvin itseoppinut animaattori ja silleen.. Hyvää vappua!

[walterhemming]

@JoonaRuusuvuori : Kiva että tykkäsit. Olen opiskellut Suomessa Limingan taidekoulussa, Slovakiassa VSMU:ssa ja Hollannissa St.Joost academyssä. Vaikka eihän sitä opiskella tarvitse animoidakseen....

[Oneversal]

Reminds me of a couple close people I used to know...

[plasticdan]

fabulous and inspirational!

[gouhou1gouhou]

i really like your work!!!!what kind of clay did you use?

thanks

[walterhemming]

@gouhou1gouhou :

I used something similar to Fimo or Super Sculpey. The kind that gets hard in an oven.

Moral of the story - Put down the wine bottle and get to an AA meeting! Awesome work-I cried.

Leevi Lehtinen, this work is amazing. I first saw it put to Tom Waits' "I hope that I don't fall in love with you" (here on Youtube, everyone, check that out). Hope you continue your work.

A wonderful piece, such imagination to fill one man's glass and to dance with the woman of his

dreams, his own creation. Extraordinary timing and detail. He actually takes on human qualities.

Bravo. Please, I want more.

[desalvadore]

I'm waiting for Your new film!!!

[idothing]

Hi there !

Woha. Reading the sma files since summer and following aou comments and answers I finally found the time and everything for watching "Harmonica". Beuatiful. All the movements, all that characteristic moves. Yep, this is the way, sad drunken people move, act, feel and wish for (might sound weird, but what the heck...)

And the the sounds. You people who participate surely come from somewhere in the North of Europe - The sounds, that endless plans of empty space to let the music breathe

[Omaplata41]

What song was used?

[walterhemming]

The song/songs was composed for the animation by Anssi Laiho.

[eliisit]

the animation is excellent itself- congrats on it. but i find the storry pretty boring for a 6min movie... also WTF is that cross doing on the wall all the time?? absolutely unnecessary.

[igeorgios81]

excellent!One question pls since i am new into puppet animation,how can u get the fingers stable like this,mine can not resist to gravity...Do u know any good puppet animation uni,or college,or something that has to do with it??

[portablemind2]

awesome animation. love it.

[markushka141]

I can watch it all my free time! its absolutely awesome work!

[KB12399]

The animation on this was amazing, good story too, i really enjoyed this.

[benwil1785]

thats some powerful wine he was drinkin! great work!

[granaff]

Bravo!!

[walterhemming]

I used a mix of sounds. Including clock ticking which had room ambiance in the same track. I had a sound engineer working on it, so don't know details so well.

[jimlefevre]

What an extremely well observed bit of animation, the pulling of the bottles especially. And a very sweet story. Fantastic!! Did it ever go through the film festivals? (If it didn't it should have)

[walterhemming]

Hi Jim

Thanks! It's been in a few film festivals, and couple other submission applications are pending.

Don't know for sure about any future screenings.

[NYCity99]
