Again, this animation was another recommendation from my teacher in which involves the morphing and animation of plasticine. What instantly attracted me to this animation however was just the overall style of it. It is extremely simplistic, yet not. The colours provide a modern style, especially for plasticine and the shapes that are made for the background use are very sporadic in terms of relevance, yet slightly resemble the mis en scene of some other similar animation like 'SpongeBob'. There is definitely an underwater theme without the water, which in itself is interesting, however what I really admire about the animation other than the setting is the movement of the characters.
There are two cats who are made out of plasticine, but the way they walk is unlike anything I have seen before! They stroll like cats do and then morph into plasticine balls and then back to cats again. What amazes me is that the artist is able to morph the cats from balls back into their original body. Every time the cat morphs it looks as perfect as it first did and I presume that would be extremely hard to achieve.
In combination with this, just the overall aesthetic is so different and creative that I just really love this animation and I am so glad that I was introduced to it. I especially love how the tree has leaves made out of clovers. Partially realistic, partially insane.
