I think this is awesome. When I was a kid I used to be obsessed with modeling clay. I'd make all sorts of crazy creatures, play with them, then destroy them and start anew. I wish I had the technology to make a stop motion with my creations.


Most of the ones myself,my brother and my dad made back in the day involved lego and plasticine to some degree. (I really need to get those films into the digital realm) The problem we found was that the plasticine would melt under the hot lamps we used for lighting. One particular piece I remember had some creature coming towards camera between a couple of rows of trees. The trees were little model ones held up with plasticine bases... over the course of the little movie you watch the trees all droop and collapse to the ground as their bases melt.

Yeah, what the hell, why isn't this sifted yet? Now I so want to promote this goodie - and it's not only because Aardman Animations have done a kickass job in plasticine animation yet again.

Re the last line, Morph was a plasticine character, used in animations on Tony Heart's British kids TV art program called Heart Beat, back in the 80's.

Sorry, spelling police here: title should be "dis-moi que l'amour" with an "r", wonderful only takes one "l", and the accented characters don't show correctly on the front pages, so you might have to use HTML codes or replace "pâte à modeler" with plasticine or modelling clay.
That's all I wanted to say. Didn't watch the video.

Okay I did, just kidding, great stuff, hard to believe it's CGI.

Fake.
It's stop-motion - can't you see the finger prints on the plasticine?
I'd hazard a guess at Aardmann Studios.
