La animación de Ivo Caprino.

[vía caprino.no]

Ivo Caprino es un autor noruego especializado en la animación de figuras mediante stop-motion. Esta semana, en el Sábado de animación, os ofrezco un buen montón de ejemplos de su buen hacer. Su familia tenía mucho interés por introducir al joven Ivo en las artes. Su padre, Mario, era de origen italiano y muy conocido por su fabricación de muebles. De hecho, la calle donde se encontraban los estudios de Caprino, lleva el nombre de su padre. Su madre era caricaturista y sobrina del pintor Hans Gude.

Fue su madre la que le introdujo en el mundo de las marionetas, al ser ella la encargada de diseñarlas para un teatro local. Con veintinueve años (Ivo Caprino nació en 1920, lo que nos sitúa en 1949) patentó un dispositivo para hacer películas con marionetas y ahí empezó su carrera. Haciendo una broma, diré que su película más popular fue la Gran Carrera.

Hoy hay un buen montón de ejemplos, así que no me entretengo mucho y os dejo con ellos. Que paséis un buen rato.

The Ashlad and His Good Helpers

After nothing came of the movie entitled "Once Upon a Time", Ivo Caprino decided to divide the manuscript up into a series of movie shorts. The first fairytale movie was "The Ashlad and His Good Helpers".
