From Concept Art to a @bafta winning stop motion. 🎬
@ninagantz’s Wander to Wonder started with drawings and became a tactile, handmade world brought to life frame by frame. In a world increasingly shaped by digital tools, there’s something magical about seeing an idea take physical form.
Swipe through to see how the film went from concept → physical world → final film.

"I loved figuring out how these miniature people would survive without their father figure to take care of them. The juxtaposition between the innocent and sweet kids TV show and the darkness of their world behind the scenes was also something that attracted me to the film."
After the creator of an '80s children's TV series dies, the show's miniature stars Mary, Billybud and Fumbleton are left alone in the studio, and continue to make increasingly strange episodes for their fans.
Wander to Wonder

8 years in the making, 5 months of animation, one remarkable 14-minute stop motion film.
The team behind this week’s Staff Pick Premiere, “Wander to Wonder,” did a bloody good job documenting their filmmaking process. From puppet design to sets and props, their thorough 3.5-minute BTS compilation shows just how impressive their intricately detailed film is.
Check out “Wander to Wonder” at the link in bio, and you’ll find a link to the “Making Of” in the video’s description.

Nominated for an Academy Award and winner of the BAFTA for Best British Short Animation, "Wander to Wonder" by @ninagantz is one of the most extraordinary short films of any genre you'll see this year. Today, it makes its online debut as a Vimeo Staff Pick Premiere.
This stop motion film follows three very tiny humans who host a popular children's TV show based out of a garage. Their handmade world begins to unravel when their Mr. Rogers-esque creator dies unexpectedly in the studio.
Eight years in the making, "Wander to Wonder" was a co-production spanning France, Belgium, the UK, and the Netherlands. Watch the film along with director's commentary exclusively on Vimeo! #vimeostaffpick

A homage to the sweetest and best animal I ever worked with! Djaya! She is a rescue dog and came into our lives via Jim van der Woude🖤 ( a family friend and amazing mime artist ) Djaya now lives with my dad and we were lucky to have her in our music video.

We're so proud to unveil 'A Ride of the Moon' for @jonathan.anderson's @dior - a richly imaginative stop-motion film directed by @ninagantz and @ummmrenee crafted to celebrate Lunar New Year, voiced by @070shake.
Inspired by early cinema and baroque theatre, the film was brought to life through visible old school stage tricks, playful surrealism and meticulous in-camera craft. It's a true celebration of collaboration and the power of handmade artistry at a time where AI is so centrefold.
It also marks Nina's third collab with @jonathan.anderson and a first for Renee. We're excited for what the future holds ❤️🔥
Love to all the crew and producer @jonmealing for leading the charge on making magic happen x

WANDER TO WONDER fait partie de la sélection officielle 2026 des César dans la catégorie court-métrage d'animation.✨
Réalisé par @ninagantz
Produit par @circefilmsnl, Kaap Holland Film, @lesproductionsdemilou
@beastanimation , Blink Industries
Petit aperçu des coulisses du film, de la fabrication des décors et accessoires. Les personnages évoluent dans un studio à taille réelle, ce qui a conduit l’équipe à utiliser de vrais objets, chinés ou provenant de la vie quotidienne, jusqu’à des mouches collectées et des dessins d’enfance transformés en courrier de fans.
Mon Beau Studio a construit trois décors grandeur nature, transportés de la France vers la Belgique. Les structures ont été surélevées sur des tables d’animation afin de faciliter le travail des animateur·rices.
Véritable couteau suisse de l’animation, @rosie_tonkin a assuré la conception des décors, des accessoires et de marionnettes animables, dont un pigeon réalisé dans l’esprit de Jan Švankmajer.
Le chef opérateur @FrederickxSteven a quant à lui conçu un système de motion control sur mesure, avec le soutien de la rigger @margauxhumblet__stopmotion et des stagiaires Sophia et Maria — une équipe soudée, même dans les moments les plus intenses.

THE NEW MUSIC VIDEO for SALTEND RECOVERY is out now!
*CHRISTMAS AMBULANCE*
Link in my bio
The whole Gantz family came together to make this one happen during our last summer holiday. My three brothers were all involved, Django stars as the main actor, Mickey was our gaffer/spark, and Dook kindly lent us his precious Christmas village. My dad let us turn his house upside down and his amazing dog Djaya, a rescue dog from Bulgaria who turned out to be the most professional dog I ever worked with! My mum handled one of the most important jobs of all… the catering.
Ali Little came down to film and somehow managed to work magic with a tiny amount of lights and a Sony FX6. Set design and props were created and sourced by Mariken, Reggy, Lina, and my dad. Thank you for letting us hijack your holiday!
Saltend Recovery consists of Terence Dunn, vocalist Sarah Newington, and myself. The full album drops early next year.
In the meantime, check out our other singles on all platforms

Have a very Loewe Christmas 🦦
Today we’re looking back at ‘An Otter’s Tale’, a surrealist craft-led film directed by @ninagantz for @loewe inspired by British arts and craft ceramicist William De Morgan.
Produced to launch one of Loewe’s previous ready-to-wear Christmas collections, the film brings to life fantastic creatures and floral arabesques, mixing together live action, stop motion animation and fantasy to create something truly otherworldly.
