Re: Snowgun DW film
It's a movie set from Snowgum Films' production of Sir Terry's short story, Troll Bridge. Since the bridge has no name in the story yet there are a few other bridges mentioned toward the end, they apparently have given the bridge a name. It's a real physical set they have built - there are work-in-progress videos of scenes being shot, blocked with people in green-suits taking the positions of the troll, to be filled in with animation later. It's just possible that there may be more details added to the bridge with animation later, but it's cheaper to build it physically when you can, and since virtually all of the film takes place on and around that bridge, it's going to be onscreen a long time. That makes it worth the effort to make it look really good. There's nothing like reality for getting the shadows and angles right.

The set is a real set, as Tamar mentions, and the background is post-production special effects (Basically the mountain-looking bits aren't physically real). And that image is still a work in progress
Those DVD/Blu-Ray images are mockups they did when the kickstarter was launched, it's highly likely the artwork will change before they're done.
After all, they're STILL working on the film itself, right now.
If you know any CGI special effects artists (riggers and animators), they still need a few more to finish off work on some of the characters, see http://snowgumfilms.tumblr.com/

The originals (from 10 years ago) are in the "Wave I" backers. I'm in there somewhere
Kickstarter backers are "Wave II", and those who chipped in after the Kickstarter campaign are "Wave III"

Ten years? Ten years? It took a shorter time to make Hogfather and Going Postal, I'd bet!
There's a lot of fan-made films on Youtube for various fandoms. What's taking so long?
I've forgotten what the short story Troll Bridge is about; I better remember the Sea and Little Fishes.
Sorry Troll Bridge backers :-(.
