The Making of Herd Culling

For Herd Culling, we were really excited to be able to test the limits of our small team creatively. We did a lot of research into the mysteries and conspiracy theories around Skinwalker Ranch in Utah and what may/may not be happening there. The painstaking process of animating and rendering the Wolf,  who we named Tarquin after the title of Porcupine Tree’s first cassette release, alongside building the environments and landscapes of Skinwalker Ranch was incredibly time consuming but we are so proud of the finished result. We believe Herd Culling represents our best animation work to date and we really hope everyone enjoys watching it as much as we did making it.
