Luminaris is a 2011 short film directed by Juan Pablo Zaramella, which uses the pixilation technique to blend real actors with animated objects. The film won awards at 324 international film festivals, including the Woodstock Film Festival and Annecy International Animated Film Festival. It won the FIPRESCI prize and made the shortlist for the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film. The film incorporates several styles, such as art deco, tango, surrealism, and neorealism.
The production of the film took more than 2 years and a half, due to the difficult of combining pixilation with the natural sunlight moving.Plot
Set in Buenos Aires, Luminaris is the fantastical story of a man who works in a factory making light bulbs, but yearns for something more.
