Last summer, I had the great pleasure of contributing some animation and artwork for the All The Haunts Be Ours Vol. 2 box set from Severin Films. My contributions include a paper puppet theatre, and an animated title sequence for a featurette on the beautifully restored dark fantasy film The Ninth Heart, directed by Juraj Herz. This Czech film boasts an animated sequence by stop-motion maestro Jan Švankmajer and his wife and frequent collaborator, artist Eva Švankmajerová. Their title sequence used a top-down, 2D stop-motion technique with articulated paper puppets, a technique to which my sequence pays humble homage.

This box set looks INCREDIBLE. Many thanks to Kier-La Janisse for enlisting me in this dream commission.
