Artem have just completed work on a stop frame opera singer, theatre set and props for Slinky Pictures.

The stop frame sequence combines with live action (produced by Infinity Productions) and two 2D animation (also by Slinky Pictures) to a new 30” spot for Nurofen.

The sequence compares the noise magnification experienced during a severe headache to that of a shrieking opera singer performing inside the sufferer’s head.

Artem built a wonderfully grotesque stop frame opera singer puppet – complete with jewellery and lipstick on her teeth - who exercises her tonsils to their full capacity on a stylised model theatre stage.

Artem Supervisor, Bob Thorne said:

“This project was great fun to work on as the scenario and character provided us with quite a lot of artistic license.”

The spot is currently on air in the UK and Australia.
