With the release of Gelish and Morgan Taylor's Cinderella collections and the live-action Disney movie, more and more nail artists are finding their inner princess.
Manicurist Hatsuki Furutani worked with a large team with director Mizuki Kawano and Producer Yuna Takayama to create this magnificent stop-motion animation on nails. "We printed three-dimensional artificial nails by importing the animation data into the “ProJet 660 Pro” full color 3D printer. A total of 521 nails were produced by the printer, the thinnest parts measuring only 0.56mm," says the team. "We attached and replaced the nails to an actual human hand, and filmed frame by frame." The video is purely a stop-motion animation without use of computer graphics. You Might Also Like: Nail Art Animation Featuring the Kia Picanto Car
