Shaun the Sheep

After being so inspired by Will Becher, seeing the behind the scenes footage, watching the puppets come to life in the film was great. My initial thoughts of the film were that if would be aimed at children and too dumbed down but, I was wrong. The humour was made for everyone to enjoy, children or adults. And the narrative was brilliant, yet again sculpted for everyone to enjoy, riddled with humour throughout it was a very enjoyable watch.

If I hadn't of watched Will Bechers masterclass, I would not of watched it in the same way. Becher's talk added a great aura to the animation. Seeing the props, knowing how they were hand-made by a local craftsmen, seeing the water, knowing how they made it look realistic and added a whole new light and really exposed how wonderful animation is.
