Hello!



This is my first entry into my personal professional practice blog. I thought it was appropriate to start with one of my favourite animations of the week! Created by Simon Cartwright and Jessica Cope, the animation was featured in over 70 festivals around the world and has broken screen Yorkshire's record as their most successful animated short film! The reason I have chosen this animation is due to the style it encompasses and the emotional connection it creates with the audience due to the questions it can create in ones mind.

   But it's not only the narrative that speaks to my interests, it's the style of the animation, I really like stop motion animation and the sets that are created. Similar to the dark style of 'The Maker' directed by Christopher Kezelos which I will do a separate post about.

   It's a great foundation to lay down at the start of the year to express the typical style of animation that I love which gets the fire in my belly going! And I hadn't seen it before I went to the Bradford film and games museum where I saw the set and it caught my eye more than anything!
