Psst!

I've been asked to make a film for this years PSST! Pass It On - 17 collaborative films made by covens of motion-graphics warlocks and animation alchemists. It'll be launching around the world at various events in the next few weeks, and you can pre-order the DVD here.

My film is a collaboration with Bran Dougherty-Johnson of Grow Design Work and my particular section concerns a time-traveling aphrodisiac, a cup of tea, and a famous nursery rhyme. It looks like this:

Taken Hart

Tony Hart, one of my biggest influences as a child, and the person who got me into this whole drawing malarky has sadly died. I was lucky enough to met him a few months ago and was able to chat a little with him about art and inspiration. It was an emotional experience.

I've written a tribute to him on the Media Molecule blog, talking a little more about his influence on LittleBigPlanet and the little gang of us that made it.
