The French fashion designer Pierre Cardin has lived an extraordinary life, and at 97 years old much can be said about his life and career. We are proud to present the trailer for this 11-minute short documentary to tell a piece of his story, directed by Matthew Miller with Ways and Means. The project started with Paula Wallace, president of SCAD and longtime friend of Pierre’s, wanting to create a short animated film about Pierre’s influential life from his earliest memories as a child to this present day. The production was about a 6-month process from beginning to end and we had an incredible time crafting this traditionally animated film by hand. Coming winter 2020.
