The Silhouettes

We decided that for some parts of the poem, where we were going to show birds and rats feeding on corpses and a horse struggling out of a mud filled crater, that we would do these in silhouettes and to make them animatable we have made them on a sheet of acetate with black plasticine. when it come to animating them they will be back lit on a light box with tissue paper under the acetate to filter the light a little. I made the bird.

Rob made the rats...

We are also going to do the plane and air ship in silhouettes but as they don't need moving parts, we are going to cut them out of paper. here are a few designs i did for the airship.
