Abstract:
Hair plays a feature role in the film Trolls. It is a crucial part of the overall character design of the Trolls themselves, typically composing over half the silhouette of the character. However, the use of hair on the show went well beyond the standard coif and bled into acting beats, traditional effects, environments, and set pieces. This talk presents the wide variety of unique and challenging hair effects in the film and the techniques used to create them.
