This film we wrapped 3 days before the whole world shut down for the pandemic……..so, I’m so happy that it’s finally coming out on Netflix on April 1st! We shot this entire film at Troublemaker Studios in Austin, Texas on their giant green screen over the course of a month/month and a half. So, every aspect of this animation was first acted out in real life, then sent out to Austin based animation studio Minnow Mountain to then be rotoscoped over. Rotoscoping is sort of like animating over our live action work.
What an experience. Hundreds of my wigs are featured in this, and I couldn’t be more thankful for the opportunity to work on such a fun and artful project. When I read the script, I knew that this was the perfect job for me - period hair, makeup, a quirky story, animated, space - just perfect. I had a team of 3-6 artists to help me out on this, and Beth Lloyd was my right hand hair cutting master sidekick for this one. I couldn’t have done it without them.
I’ll be posting some BTS shots as soon as it hits Netflix. So excited! So grateful!
