A digital 3d restore of an existing Mickey Mouse puppet dated around 1930. Found at my grandparent's house, I couldn't resist giving him life again, even if for just few seconds. The toy's look is intentionally aged, Mickey is even missing an ear, and the texture was photographed from the toy itself. The motion and compositing for the video was done for one part entirely in Maya, for the other part in After Effects, utilizing motion tracking to match the Maya footage with real life ones shot at the mountains.
