Another stop motion animation
It's been a while but here is the link to our latest stop motion animation experiment (Penguin / Hedgehog: The World Tour Part 2). It's a bit rough and ready but we've learned a lot putting it together. Things like: it's hard to light with table lamps. I hope you enjoy it.
More stop motion animation
Our latest short is here. This time we've incorporated more green screen work and our 'actor' is a little more mobile. Our thanks to Jonathan Legg for doing the main voice over work.
Stop Motion Animation
We, like most people, have been stuck at home for weeks. I should be learning French and writing a full length play but that's not happening.

>Verulam CC 25m TT
>I rode the Verulam CC 25m TT on the fast F1/25 yesterday. Slightly disappointed with the time - 1:01:45. Slightly disappointed to have to get up at 3:30am as well. It was a still, cool day. What wind there was was against for the last 10 miles.Race stats: Time: 1:01:45 (24.29mph). First 12.5 miles: 30:04, last … Continue reading >Verulam CC 25m TT
>*does a little dance*

The stuff is supposed to take a fortnight to clear the system, so I wasn't expecting immediate results.The picture was taken in The Netherlands last week by Henny Postema - many thanks, HennySaturday was a fun day out. … Continue reading >*does a little dance*
