SHORT TALKS with Nidhi Reddy & Patrick Zimmerman

In this Short Talk, Nidhi Reddy and Patrick Zimmerman, co-founders of Liminal House and creators of RAJAS & THE WOLF GIRL, discuss the process of developing the film’s unique hybrid animation style.

Blending 2D characters with 3D environments, the film combines rotoscope animation, motion capture, and selective 3D elements (like hair and texture) to create a visual language that feels both grounded and surreal.

Finding that style wasn’t immediate, it came through years of experimentation, iteration, and pushing different techniques until something clicked.

This conversation explores how mixed media animation can evolve through process, and how embracing experimentation can lead to something entirely new.
