Ties – Behind the scenes, reveals process of working with a 3D pen in the production of stop motion animation film Ties.

All characters were done in 2d digital drawn animation technique and then outlined with 3D pen. This pen works like a glue gun. It melts plastic, which hardens so quickly that it is possible to draw in the air. The result was sets of plastic flat figures, that were filmed, frame by frame in a stop-motion set, along with wire objects.
