After “Kandittund!” and “Aranapuranam,” our Appuppan and his stories become very popular, and we have several recordings of Mr. P. N. K. Panicker that we wanted to share with you because you love his style of storytelling. This song, casually sung by him, was recorded by his son, Suresh Eriyat, our creative director. These animation clips under the title ‘Simply Appuppan’, made in 3D, are just for you. Fans of “Kandittund!” and “Aranapuranam,” don’t worry—our 2D animation style will continue. These 3D snippets are meant to share the delightful moments of Appuppan in short forms. Enjoy this song from Appuppan, and look forward to many more.

BTS Part 03 | Character modelling | The Seed | Award Winning Stop Motion Animation Film
Go behind the scenes of “The Seed” and explore the complexities of character design and modeling. Creating these largish, unique characters required them to look like part of a tribe while connecting to Eeksaurus, balancing sweet and cute appearances without looking monstrous (despite them being monsters). The intricate design involved careful consideration of their body projections and other features, ensuring actions didn’t overlap due to their large structure. This video provides a detailed look at our process, challenges, and solutions, offering valuable insights for anyone interested in stop motion animation. Enjoy the journey into our creative process!

The idea of this film showcases the conflicts that a designer gets into while getting into a problem and finding an integrated solution for it. The problem and the challenges mould the designer to change himself/herself to attach to the problem to come up with a solution that’s intrinsic within the problem. This struggle makes the designer very much part of the ecosystem and sometimes the problem moulds the designer and then designer moulds it further and then they come with an integrated solution which is what the Versus logo would become eventually. It is a choreographed action-reaction duel which magnifies and eventually settle down to coexist.
The journey of a designer deeply immersed in solving a problem is inherently tied to navigating through conflicts and challenges. These conflicts arise as the designer delves into the problem, seeking an integrated solution. This process is not merely about finding a quick fix but involves a transformative journey for the designer. They must adapt and change, becoming intrinsically attached to the problem. It’s through this intimate engagement that a designer’s creativity and problem-solving skills are honed.
This struggle is emblematic of the designer becoming a part of the ecosystem surrounding the problem. The problem shapes the designer’s approach and perspective, and in turn, the designer reshapes the problem, leading to a dynamic process of action and reaction. It’s a dance of influence, where both the designer and the problem evolve until an integrated solution is achieved. This solution, much like the Versus logo, symbolizes the culmination of a choreographed duel between conflicting forces, magnifying the intricacies of the problem before settling into a harmonious resolution.
This process highlights the complex interplay between a designer and the challenges they face. It underscores the importance of resilience, adaptability, and deep engagement with the problem at hand. The outcome is a testament t
The Pune Design Festival 2024 concluded last weekend. As partners and well-wishers, we had the privilege of creating the opening film, this year themed ‘Versus’. Eeksaurus embarked on an adventurous journey by adopting stop-motion animation for the first time in the festival’s history. Faced with a production timeline of less than 10 days, our determined team at Eeksaurus embraced the ‘Versus’ theme wholeheartedly, seeing it as a challenge to overcome our battle with time. The interdisciplinary teams engaged in a creative showdown, a testament to their preparation and battle cry.
