The story follows a little girl who loses a tooth, and all the events that are triggered by this episode: unexpected encounters, bizarre dances, and celestial reveries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The short film was made by Laura Ettori, a RUFA student in the three-year GD &#8211; Comics And Illustration program, using two techniques: stop motion, through the animation of cardboard cutouts, and traditional animation, with more than 300 frames hand-drawn on paper. The sound design and soundtrack were supervised by Matteo Ursini, a student at Saint Louis College of Music, who worked drawing inspiration from the music of Nino Rota. The project was supervised by Alessandro Carpentieri.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just as in Fellini&#8217;s cinema plastic tarpaulins can become a sea, in Four and a Quarter paper gives the illusion of a whole world, in which those feelings of bewilderment, tenderness and discovery typical of a childhood memory reign. The project aims to touch on the &#8220;Fellini-esque&#8221; elements that most struck the author, but creating a story that can reach everyone, even those who do not know Fellini. <br\/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":6520,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"class_list":["post-6522","opera","type-opera","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/grandtourafam.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/opera\/6522","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/grandtourafam.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/opera"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/grandtourafam.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/opera"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/grandtourafam.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/grandtourafam.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6520"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/grandtourafam.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6522"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
