Here’s a little piece I made that was commissioned by the Bristol Animated Encounters Festival (specifically for the ‘Graffiti Animation’ section) & featuring two of Bristol’s most famous sons. There’s been a lot of media speculation over the past few years on the subject of Banksy’s real identity & maybe this animated short will reveal the truth behind the mystery?

The idea was to film it as if secret CCTV footage had been found showing the enigmatic artist hard at work. The whole spot was animated in a few days, with model-making & prop building completed the previous week & finished off with a couple of days post in After Effects.
