Nick Park\Aardman Studios\ Chicken Run


Nick park is an English stop motion animator who is best known for his work in Wallace and Grimit, creature comforts and my favorite chicken run, in 1985 he joined the staff of Aardman studios where he worked on the music video “Sledgehammer” where he worked on the dance scene. He then later on to made Creature Comforts which matched the soundtracks of people’s interviews on versus subjects to animated zoo animals. 

I like nick park’s work because it is of the wide range of characters and sets designs used, and the feeling of smooth flowed movements in the actions of the models, giving them life and character to the models.
I’m not really a fan of Wallace and Gromit much, mainly because of the stories, but my favourite film is chicken run.

Chicken run is about chickens who are trying to escape the farm, till one night Rocky, a Rhode Island Red ends up hiding with them. He promised them he will help them escape when its wing has healed (which he is faking) 

I find it funny because it’s an adaptation of the fill The Great Escape, but with barn chickens. The detail that is put into the characters and sets are amazing, as each chicken has its own personality and design.
