What is the film about?

A man anxiously practices his proposal to his girlfriend, while the coin operated machine that turns the world is running low on credit.

What influenced it?

My film was heavily influenced by the TV show ‘Lost’ and the inventions of Wallace and Gromit. Stylistically I was also influenced by the textured nature of ‘Coraline’.

A little background information...

I made this film for my Major Project in my Final year at The University of Glamorgan. I wanted to make a film I would be content with both in its story and animation.

How was the film made?

I made it with whatever I could get my hands on. Towels, wirewool, watch cogs and all the other usual stop-motion materials.
