Animation
The Christmas Present
This was a short film I made as part of my HND course at college, created entirely on computer using an animation program and my Wacom Pad, which is the best thing ever. It was a rather twisted black comedy about Santa bringing something other than toys with him on Christmas Eve...
Clicking on the thumbnails below will display a small selection of preliminary sketches and frame grabs from the finished animation.
Anyone ever seen those test animations that the people at Disney do, where they have to imbue a sack of flour with the full range of human emotions? This was another college project featuring those very same sacks, showing how they originally came into being.
