Lost & Found is a seven minute stop motion Oscar shortlisted film, directed by Goldy, co-directed with Brad Slabe and Produced by Lucy J Hayes. A clumsy crochet dinosaur must unravel itself to save the love of its life.

Four years in the making, the production saw a full size restaurant custom built as a modular set for stop motion filming, several hand crafted puppets that were purpose built for different animation situations and even a working sushi train was completely disassembled for hand animating.

Every shot was planned and programmed with a custom stop motion rig, many featuring complicated dolly or hand-held like movement. Every single element in front of the lens including water is hand animated by guru Sam Lewis. Heat-warped acetate, bubble wrap, hair gel and “personal” lubricant made for a suitable water substitute allowing waves and splashes to remain rigid long enough to capture desired frames.
