| A "Marquette" is made for each of the 8 characters in the game. This is for client approval and for pulling molds. | A silicone mold is made of each character. |
|
|
|
| Scores of copies of each character get molded from clay. Then each copy is cleaned up and has the various details added. | Once a character has been "cleaned up" the animator has to pose and resculpt the puppet into the right position. Usually only a few positions can be sculpted before the puppet must be replaced with a new one. |
|
|
|
| Even though the image resolution was only that of a cartridge game, we shot 35 mm motion picture film so that we would have the maximum resolution to control color and contrast issues in post. | Each of the character positions had been determined and tested in pre-production using Cel animation. The clay animators then matched their sculpts to drawings. |
