Work in progress shots of the main character in my Second Year Animation final film...thing.
The "Working title" for the film is "Mr. Prigley's Pocket-sized Orchestra", even though said Orchestra won't be pocket-sized, but that's what working titles are for isn't it.
Drawing on my usual back-log of influences, this Short shall be in the same tone as Purple and the Penguin, which reflected my love of the works of Oliver Postgate and other such animated children's programmes from my lengthy and ongoing childhood.
This project is inspired particularly by Trumpton and Camberwick Green, infact the whole of Trumptonshire is offering continual inspiration and enthusiasm to this project and it's creation.
I also intend to pull in homages to Paddington Bear, my own childhood memories of warm sunshine and even, somewhat unintentionally reflecting the simplistic but charming semi-illustrative style of Tin-Tin, entirely separate from the current release of the block-buster Steven Spielberg CGI adventure.
This chap is made of, or to be be more procise, is being made of tin-foil, plasticine and thermo polymer clay.
Watch this space...
Please.
