Abstract

A gang of kids find a strange house with an overgrown garden where they play. Only once do they meet the man who lives there, a dead-beat alcoholic with a free and easy spirit who welcomes them. The children see him as a romantic character in stark contrast to their neurotically house proud parents.

A collaboration between Animator Jonathan Hodgson and Illustrator Jonny Hannah.

Additional Information:	TYPEMOTION: Typemotion is a touring group exhibition and a book with accompanying box set of seven DVDs, featuring over 200 outstanding examples of text and typography being used alongside the moving image. The exhibition celebrates the creative possibilities of opening up uses of text far beyond print, and seeks to showcase not only the importance of writing, but how bringing it to life with movement is an artform in itself. I contributed my films Feeling My Way and The Man with the Beautiful Eyes to both the exhibition, book and DVD collection.
