Fernando The Goldfish

Walking Fernando always felt like a fairytale.

When Max Mir from Gunpowder House first approached us for this scene where Fernando's bowl breaks and Javier Bardem is helplessly flopping around the first question we all asked was,

"Are we dreaming?"

Even with a speedy turnaround time to have Fernando festival-ready it was a fantastic experience and so much fun to lip-sync Javier Bardem to a goldfish.
