Pinscreen Documentry (1973)

Pinscreen animation makes use of a screen filled with movable pins, which can be moved in or out by pressing an object onto the screen. The screen is lit from the side so that the pins cast shadows. The technique has been used to create animated films with a range of textural effects difficult to achieve with any other animation technique, including traditional cel animation.

No clue how this showed up in my recommendeds, but that was utterly fascinating.

How did anyone think up such a marvelous technique?

[@LadyBrightcynder]

What an insane way to animate but it gets such cool results!

[@OrlindeEarfalas]

Thank you for sharing this! I was trying to find more informations on the pin screen animation technique, and what better way to learn than from the master himself!

[@cuntdork]

Agreed! Also, love your profile picture. 😁

Amazing effects. It must have been so stressful on the neck and shoulders of the animator, though.

I liked it better the first time it was invented. When they called it “Ink and Paper”
