About
Lost Cubert is a second year student project from the University of Applied Siences in Wiesbaden, Germany. The allegory is about life, work, repetition and the complete loss of identity. The animated short film was realized in a mixture of traditional handdrawn animation, 3D-Computer renderings and rotoscoping technigues.
This blog features various background materials, working steps and screening dates from around the world.
