Yuri Norstein

Textures to represent creatures. Different methods of characterization and representation in this animation form. The animals themselves are symbolic and the collage effect gives the characters some substance. There is little detail in the scenes and background, as it is set in a fog.

"Yuri Norstein is widely regarded as one of the most innovative animators of all time. Born in Russia in 1941, his family were evacuated during WWII and taken to Moscow in 1943."

He created some 50 films before he had the chance to direct his own films.
