Introduction to Butterfly

Corin introduces his epic first film.

Butterfly (2003) is our case study short film this week and our first animation.

The film took Corin five years to make and was all shot in a workshop in his garden, drawing upon the help of a number of friends, colleagues and family.

It is worth considering what animation has to offer to the filmmaker in terms of going beyond reality.

Please note that Butterfly deals with some dark themes, notably bereavement.
