The Tale of the Three Brothers

Here is an animation from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I really like the style of it and would like to create something very similar. It is very similar to the shadow puppet technique that I have been looking at, but is much smoother. It also uses more colour as well as some parts being in negative. The narrator works well for this particular animation as it's one of the most famous characters from the film. I think it depends on the complexity of the story as to whether or not I will need a narrator in mine.
