Playful Stop-Motion Films - Peg Tango

Screen shot from Peg Tango: Forget-Me-Not

Introducing you to a new page on my website dedicated to the 'out-shoots', a real behind the scenes of my creative process.  I like to animate the inanimate, to bring to life a story, an event or an experience.  These daft stop-motion films are made sometimes over a day or two, sometimes over weeks. They intermingle with domestic life. Made on a fridge door, kitchen table or shelves in the spare room.  They sketch out happiness, sadness and the joy of achievement.

Peg Tango was first shown to the public in a garden shed at The Refectory Table in Loughborough.  The story describes a dream of becoming a synchronised swimmer realised in pegs.  Here's a link to take a peek Peg Tango

The films seem like an elaborate doodle - one line leading to another, one story onto another, mixing up memories, myths and stories to build an animated narrative.  I would love to know what you think.
