Christmas Music

My second christmas film tells the story of a thieve who steals christmas music on christmas eve. A father who believes that there can be no christmas celebration without the music goes on a thieve hunt together with his loyal "dog" Rufus.

Info

My first short film to use a blue screen effect. The "actors" were copied digitally into various video footage.

There are actually two different versions of the film: a German and a Japanese one.

Both versions are not only using different languages, there are also scenes exclusive to one version. For example, there are Karaoke subtitles and a scene where the thieve sings "Last Christmas" in the Japanese version.

My first short film which was shot in NTSC format.

In order to avoid misunderstandings, the Japanese version has subtitles (in Japanese).

Type of film

Three hand puppets (Beaver, Cat, Snoopy) and a stuffed pet play the main roles. As usual, I do all the voices.

The Japanese version has human actors as well: three news announcers and the girl group Morning Musume.
