Little Black Riding Hood

A small part from the Little Red Riding Hood Fairy Tale done in silhouette technique.

This was an extra project I did during my first year at school. I cut out the separate pieces for the characters and made simple joints. As I could only use two weeks to work on this, this is as far as I got.

I really like this technique and I will no doubt try this again some time. A funny thing is that I never even had heard of Lotte Reiniger before I made this and my teacher said it bore a strong resemblance to it. It appears she single-handedly made numerous fairy tale animations in silhouet technique (and making an obscure first feature length animation even before Disney's Snow White!). I guess great minds think alike, right? ;)

How did you get the background green/blue? Thank you!

[Ealynn]

@PinkCarnationProDux - the background was already that color hue because of the light in the lighttable, I made the contrast a bit sharper in my editing software to have the black more dark and that raised the bg color to more green/blue.

@RavenPrincess13 i think the trees helped with the turning since you couldnt see all of her at that moment

How do you make the dolls turn around? I have tried this technic before, but could'nt find out of it. They are flat, so how do you do it? Pleas answear
