In preparation for our larger stop motion projects, Jack Leonard and I went out one day and shot this stop motion to test out some new equipment. Our only concept from the get go was these two hands on stilts and the desire to use shadow to depict a playful and mischievous magical being. The title refers to the old story “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice,” in which the sorcerer leaves his apprentice alone to do chores. The apprentice uses magic he is not fully trained in and gets in way over his head.
