The famed, Oscar-winning claymation studio behind Wallace & Gromit, Shaun The Sheep and other classic stop-motion films celebrates five decades of innovative filmmaking, with this awe-inspiring immersive collaboration at Lightroom. Making use of the towering 11 meter-high walls, this digitally projected, 50-minute show tells the behind-the-scenes story of the creators, the creativity, the characters, comedy and craftsmanship which create the films so beloved by generations of children and adults alike.
The true scale of the artistic processes and timelines of what it takes to make an Aardman film are fascinating to dive into. Learn about how thousands upon thousands of tiny, intricate edits to the delightful clay models create the gripping, humorous, and often dramatic movies, and see sculpture become animation as the team behind the scenes create memorable moments with the characters we know and love. Written and co-directed by Kate Stanley and Nicol Scott, this is an unmissable peek behind the curtain at a British animation institution.
