Description
Written by Ian Cooke and illustrated by Adam Singer, the story revolves around a flying mammal's attempts to win the heart of a flightless bird. Singer and Cooke built elements for the video out of organic materials, then photographed and added the elements for the final 6-minute-long animated final product. The book is built from images from the short film, and includes a CD and DVD of the short film, music videos, live footage, and documentaries. The package was produced by Ian O'Dougherty and will be released by Greater Than Collective.
