So the University's Degree Show is over, and here is the film I submitted for it.
Child of the Moor - Nick Thorne from Nick Thorne on Vimeo.
The Child of the Moor is inspired by the things I imagine to exist in the moorlands
of particularly Scotland and Ireland, and is fuelled by the desire to convey internal
emotions and thoughts. This animation is about a feral boy, raised by emotionless
demons, who has not before met another human, when he does the capacity
to and longing for care and bonding reveal themselves.
