今天，硬如钉子跑和枪平台游戏《丘比特》将在PlayStation4上映。MDHR工作室宣布这款游戏将在索尼的游戏机上推出一款有趣（有点恐怖）的定格预告片，预告片中有丘比特和邪恶的国王骰子。

丘比特已经以其手绘艺术风格而闻名，让人觉得它就像一部上世纪30年代的动画片。但新的预告片把游戏中最具代表性的两个角色放在了一个全新的动画风格中，灵感来自1933年的实验短片《花生小贩》，MDHR工作室的联合导演chadmoldenhauer在PlayStation的博客中说。

Moldenhauer说，MDHR工作室与多伦多工作室的定格动画部门合作**了这部预告片，他们“付出了额外的努力，以确保自己掌握了许多与那个时代的定格动画**者相同的技术。”

The film itself was animated without the assistance of the computer programs that allow modern stop motion animators to preview their shots and correct errors. Instead, Philip [Eddolls] and Evan [DeRushie] limited themselves to drawn-out charts and metal gauges to record the position of each puppet, before lining them up to their next position. This mimicked the “try your best and see what happens” limitati*** of the early stop motion producti***.

Finally, the whole thing was filmed using real lenses from 1930s known as “C Mount” lenses, which blow out the footage and give it a deliberately vintage look. Each shot was used as-is, with no corrective editing or compositing, meaning that if you look closely enough, you will see supports and other animation implements in the background.

我想说，原来的短比今天的杯头预告片更令人不安，但你应该看自己的判断视频。

Cuphead于2017年首次在Xbox和PC上发布，并于去年登陆任天堂交换机。
