What's left behind the scenes

  • The idea for the film came to Aaron Blaise 10 years ago, but he only started drawing when he found funding and time. It took him three years to create the film. Blaise was the director, screenwriter, and editor of the project.
  • Over 11,000 drawings were included in the short animated film.
  • The images in the cartoon are deliberately simplified to give the impression that they were created by a polar bear.
  • There is practically no sound in the cartoon. Initially, Blaise experimented with using voice-over and sounds that bears might make, but then he chose silence (excluding musical accompaniment and natural ambient sounds), realizing that it would be better to focus on the visuals rather than the audio.
  • The Northern Lights were animated using traditional methods – frame by frame, without the use of corresponding computer programs.
  • Aaron Blaise drew the bear based on other images of polar bears in cinema, and in particular, his involvement in Disney’s animated film 'Brother Bear' (2003). He later said that it was as if 'muscle memory had kicked in'.
  • The film was animated using computer programs that are used by many 2D animators. Aaron Blaise decided that this most closely resembled traditional animation drawn on paper with pencils.
  • One of the most difficult scenes to animate turned out to be the melting scene, because it was necessary to show how the bear melts and deforms, but in a way that the bear remains recognizable until the very end.
  • Initially, it was supposed that in the finale, the polar bear would simply meet a female polar bear, but then Aaron Blaise decided to show snow sculptures made by the cubs.
