The Necktie (French: Le noeud cravate) is a 2008 animated short by Jean-François Lévesque about a man with a dreary job who rediscovers his old accordion at age 40, and with it, his joy for life.
The central character is a puppet filmed in stop-motion, inside miniature sets.
His co-workers are animated with traditional animation drawings on paper, digitally integrated into shots but designed to give the appearance of being 2D cardboard cutouts.
[1] The Necktie was produced in Montreal by the National Film Board of Canada.
