Amazing animation from the 1930s

I found out about this on the Just Dolls blog, and I'm so glad I did!

This is the best stop motion animation I have ever seen, the effects are amazing, and the characters instantly believable. It's definitely worth watching to the end, although it does get quite dark and creepy in places, it is also funny, touching and charming!

Sandwich day dolly animation...

As we all know sandwich day is a momentous occasion every year... ('IS IT!?' - the dollies)

Errrrm... well... no. Actually it isn't. But it's as good an excuse as any to experiment with dolly animations. So here is the premiere of my very first EVER animation, 'Dolly Sandwich' (drum roll please)...



Okay, so it's not exactly Aaardman, but it is a start. And it does have a dolly in it so it can't be all bad *grin*...
