“Great work, Shaun! See you on the next one.” Another lovely making of look at the stop-motion animation process (just like with Laika’s Wildwood). Aardman Animation & Studiocanal revealed a delightful behind-the-scenes promo video for the movie Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom, the Halloween-themed stop-motion animated movie coming up to watch in theaters staring this month. It’s the next new Aardman-crafted Shaun the Sheep movie and it’s playing in theaters worldwide at the same time. Beast of Mossy Bottom is about what happens when The Farmer’s pumpkin patch is strangely trashed & Shaun tries to help figure out how to fix it in time for Halloween. “All the ingredients are in place for a monstrously fun family adventure.” Featuring the scary “wild beast” of Mossingham wreaking havoc until Shaun & his flock can figure out how to stop him. I keep saying it because it’s true – anything Aardman makes is a must watch! They’re the UK version of Laika, celebrating the magic hand-made, hand-crafted, fun-for-all storytelling. I always enjoy the behind-the-scenes looks at stop-motion sets and all of the details in every little tiny part of every character & every set piece. This one looks like it’s going to be tons of fun! Catch it in theaters soon. 🎃 // Continue Reading ›
