A collection of studio pottery provides a treasury of shapes, colours and textures. Still images of the pots are selected, trimmed and ordered by software. Modern minimalist and ambient music provide a matching soundscape. The screen is full of colour and movement as the pots slide, turn, merge and dance.
I have retired after programming computers for nearly half a century. I have always loved animation, and I have made a few stop motion films as a hobby, first with Super-8 film, and more recently with digital tools. I also make pottery, again as a hobby, and have built up a collection of studio ceramics which is threatening to take over the house. I love going to animation festivals in the United Kindom and Europe. Now I have had the time to combine all three pursuits in 'Ceranimation', my first film to be submitted to festivals.
