There is a scene in the film where a tree grows out of a book. To make the animation process easier I am going to shoot it backwards so I don't have to build a tree as I animate. This means I start with a full tree which then curls in upon itself and is cut away so I am left with nothing.
I started by twisted fine wire around thicker wire to create a knobbly surface. I made three of these and then papier mache'd book pages onto them. Once dry I twisted the wire together to create a tree trunk with individual strands at one end for roots and at the other for branches.
I then added addition wire onto the roots and branches and papier mache'd it all. Lastly I added normal shaped leaves and 'Z' shaped leaves which were aluminium gauze sandwich between two pieces of book page.
