TONATIUH
A STOP MOTION SHORT FILM
A priest from an ancient cult that worships the sun was sent on an unknown journey by his old master to collect the stones of Tonatiuh and return them to the temple.
The entire film was shot during my stay on Lanzarote, Canary Islands. All the scenery is real and located around a volcano in the west of the island. The scene in the temple was shot during one long night in a cave and I only used candles and a Macbook for the lighting. The figure is about 8 centimeters high and made out of an Iron Man figure and a trouser pocket.
The design of the title was made by Skyrenia.
