Valentin Felder
I'm a filmmaker and mechanical artist from germany, working on an entirely handcrafted Steampunk-Stopmotion movie! The german title of the movie will be "Das Getriebe im Sand", which translates to something like "The gears in the sand". The whole movie will be translated to english when finished.
I'm documenting the whole journey online, check out my website and social-media pages to see the other things I created so far and learn more about the project:
