We found an AWESOME Cuphead Zoetrope! | Real Life Animation Magic | ACMI, Melbourne
Checking Out a Cuphead Zoetrope at the ACMI Museum in Melbourne! This is an awesome spinning model filled with lots of physical models of Cuphead characters. As the zoetrope spins wish strobe lights, it creates the illusion of animation! Really cool stuff; as a big Cuphead and animation fan I was really surprised to see this! Features Cuphead, Mugman, Miss Chalice, Mr King Dice, the Devil and more!
Cuphead is a critically acclaimed run-and-gun videogame known for its 1930s cartoon-inspired hand-drawn animation, challenging gameplay, and memorable characters like Cuphead, Mugman, and King Dice, combining classic animation techniques with modern gaming. There's also a Netflix animated show inspired by it!
"The charming and cheeky animated characters of Studio MDHR’s Cuphead videogame spring into action in this contemporary incarnation of the popular 19th-century invention, the zoetrope. Designed specifically for ACMI by Studio MDHR, this zoetrope spins and uses strobe lighting to create the illusion of 90 individual characters magically coming to life. Watch as Cuphead, Mugman, Ms Chalice, King Dice and the Devil all animate before your eyes in a series of poses representing the way Cuphead mixes classic animation with modern digital gaming.
Heavily inspired by the classic cartoons of the 1930s – particularly Fleischer Studios and Walt Disney – Studio MDHR used hand-drawn cel animation, watercolour backgrounds and original jazz recordings to create the world of Cuphead – one of the most successful run-and-gun videogames in recent memory." - Info board
