Behind the scenes of Edward Scissorhands

Scissors create a world

Scissors is a hand drawn animated short created by artist and CalArts animation student Daron Nefcy. The film is about a girl working a boring job who decides, though a dream, to take that step into the outside.

Two hands prepare a paper cutting... They create a tailor made from black cardboard and let him go into a paper world. He comes alive and together with the scissors, which created him, he wanders around.

At the sound of cardboard being snipped, Annette remembers the first time she cut out animal silhouettes and passes on this unique talent to her daughter Katia.

The imaginary life cycle of a pair of scissors, from birth to reproduction.
