Cut and Paste.

In class we were all asked to create an animation based on a proverb that we pulled out of a hat.
I had to respond to the proverb "It never rains, but it pours". Which basically means that when you're having a bad day, it will usually end up with a succession of equally bad occurrences happening all day!

I decided a cool theme for this piece would be to set it in the life of a bird... just for comic value really! I've based the story around this scruffy mangy little character who first off drops his supper, then who's life is intruded upon by a Parrot, who he disgusts with his uncleanly feathers! A family of Budgies who torment him with their happy family circumstance, and then finally a Peacock who spreads his luscious tail and pushes the poor guy off his branch into a puddle.

Gutted.....
