The PEN Story

This is the PEN Story in stop motion. We shot 60.000 pictures, developed 9.600 prints and shot over 1.800 pictures again. No post production! Thanks to all the stop motion artists who inspired us. We hope you enjoy :-)

Some of the comments we have read here suggest that we should mention the creator of "A wolf loves pork", Mr Taijin Takeuchi.
While we were looking for a way to realise a story describing "a journey through time" based on printed images, we were inspired by Mr Takeuchi's brilliant work. For this reason we intentionally quoted his work in our little movie while showing full respect to his original idea. We didnt mention his name because we did not want to do so without his prior agreement.
However after considering some of the comments posted here we have decided to add credits to him and his work, which we obviously absolutely love.

Amazing movie that I just discovered 3 years after being released it hasn't gotten old at all! :)

Mr. Takeuchi's work didn't inspire you - that's just you guys trying to cover your butts. You ripped off all of his brilliant techniques tried to present them as your own. It's only after many, many people called you on it that you belatedly put a comment into the description acknowledging his existence and his film.

His Wolf and Pig film was there first and anything interesting in your 3 minutes is due entirely to his creativity. He did it 1st, he did it better and he did with less money.
