Docklands Studios Melbourne’s Post

🎨 Creatives, take note! 🎨 It took 8 years of painstaking dedication for Adam Elliot to complete his latest claymation marvel, released in cinemas this week. 🍿 With not a single frame of CGI, his artisans spent a year crafting 5000 objects to be captured by a skilled camera team on 200 miniature sets.🎬 The 33 week shoot for Memoir of a Snail all happened in a vacant store next to our studio in Melbourne's Docklands, with the crew popping in to use our workshops now and then. Elliot describes his writing process as "unconventional and back to front. I start with all the varied ingredients and details I'd like in my film and then somehow find a way to string them together. I write and rewrite until some sort of structure eventually appears". 💡✨ Congratulations and good luck - we're proud to have played a small part in this creative journey. 🎥👏 Madman Entertainment VicScreen Screen Australia Arenamedia Pty Ltd Soundfirm Melbourne International Film Festival Charades Australian Chamber Orchestra #claymation #adamelliot #memoirofasnail
