About

In the National's hit production of War Horse a curved screen (designed by Rae Smith) resembling a cloud or a tear of paper from a notebook was used to project images drawn by Rae or filmed using puppets created by Handspring Puppet Company. Leo Warner and Mark Grimmer of Fifty-Nine Productions, who are specialists in the art of video projection for theatre, were also key members of the creative team making these images possible.
