Corin Hardy directs this fun promo for UK recording artist Paolo Nutini. Paolo is represented as a life size clay version of himself. The stop motion Paolo sings and dances in sync with a bevy of live-action female musicians and dancers. Animating with Dragon Stop Motion 2.0, the animation team loaded the live action shots as line-up layers. Mark Waring (who also acted as animation supervisor for “Fantasic Mr. Fox”) had this to say about the Nutini project:
Mark Waring-
“We used Dragon throughout the Paolo Nutini promo – and realistically we couldn’t have done it without it! The overlaying of reference footage and the x-sheet facility were invaluable! It made for a smooth shoot and happy producers who could see what we were doing!”
