Catalogue: Today's run cleared the import flag from 25 stop-motion works from 2015, adding 32 credits and 20 new people. Adam Elliot is now credited as director and writer of Ernie Biscuit, his 21-minute short about a deaf taxidermist in Paris. Nina Gantz gains her felt-puppet short Edmond, and Marc James Roels and Emma De Swaef (This Magnificent Cake, The House) gain the one-minute The Garden Ape. Amanda Strong and Bracken Hanuse Corlett are credited on Salmon (Mia’), and Paul Bush on The Five Minute Museum, built from thousands of museum objects. Other directors already in the catalogue gain a second film: Emily Ann Hoffman (The Emily & Ariel Show, with Ariel Noltimier Strauss) and Conner Griffith (Ripple). Fernando Cortizo is credited as writer of The Cryptozoologist. Studio Croma's La Leggenda della Torre links to the Bologna crew of Playing God. First-time credits include Mónica Santos and Alice Guimarães (Amélia & Duarte), Kai Stänicke (B.), May and Lina Ghaibeh (The Wind) and Anni Oja (The Moustache / Viikset). Three documentaries (A Grand Night In, My Life in Monsters on Phil Tippett, and Spectrum) gained format and runtime notes. TMDB lists Vicente Mallols as director of The Cryptozoologist, but that credit was not linked: the catalogue has two Vicente Mallols rows that should be reconciled first. · Wiki: Squash and stretch in stop motion
