Animations

Raven Kaliana creates colourful film animations using live-action cut-paper shadow theatre, which gives an unusual and distinctive look. Shadow animation is quicker and costs far less than hand-drawn or computer animation, and lends itself well to online and video applications. Raven creates a storyboard – or works from one provided – then creates the puppets and scenic elements, performs and films the scenes, then edits together the final animation, coordinating the imagery with any sound provided, into a video file. These animations have been commissioned for a number of documentaries, music videos, and theatre productions, and work well for public service messages, informational videos, how-to demonstrations, and more.
