“The Adventures of Zé” is an animated series by Canal Demais that shows how someone can continue making movies during a pandemic lockdown. Social distancing and enforced isolation make video production close to impossible. In the story statuettes Mari received at a film festival come to life and make her dreams come true.

 

In order to continue to produce series during the pandemic. Quentin Lewis at Canal Demais spent six weeks of lock-down leaning all aspects of computer animation. After learning about 3d modelling, rendering and animation in the free animation platform “Blender 3d” the result was the 3 part series “The Adventures of Zé”.
