Director Statement
Three Hours Per Frame: Creating Of Wood was my pandemic project. I often wore a mask during our shoots. I feel honored to have been able to record the creation of OF Wood, a much celebrated stop-cut animation. Owen was a lot of fun to work with and I’m sure everyone will love meeting him in this film.
