Trope: Libretto

Trope:Libretto

Working along-side the internationally acclaimed artists, Bruno Mathez and Dr Carol MacGillivray: Under the partnership of Trope. We built an animated installation at the Fine Art facility at Christ Church University, for the 27th Annual International Society for Animation Study Conference held in July 2015.

As a Kinetic Installation, Libretto stunned as a host of bird like books take off in a sublime gathering.

Transformation of the studios

Shadow of Hanging Book Birds

After erecting a hand-built frame Trope provided, hanging the book birds was done by hand and balancing on ladders. this wonderful shot was taken during one of the D-scope's tests.

Stage Curtain Blackout process

The monumental challenge of sourcing, stitching together and the hanging of Stage quality velvet curtains. Some very sore fingers after this one!!
