"Three Wolves" (Werewolf Transformations)

(Thanks to Mike for the tip!)
Having discussed amateur werewolf animation in our last post, here's an amateur live action example. Three Wolves is a mockumentary interview with three werewolves, each awaiting moonrise. The video is cleverly shot to look like research footage, and the editing is very clever--the jump cuts suggest the look of rough amateur footage and also allow the make-up to change between cuts, creating the illusion of transformation. The make-up has a homemade look, but I find that more charming than slick CGI. Three Wolves originated as a university assignment--if only more dissertations were like this...
