I&#8217;d had a personal experience which I really wanted to communicate via animation \u2013 not a story, but an emotional feeling and I knew that I didn&#8217;t want to retell the circumstances which brought the feeling on within the film \u2013 being literal is not what makes animation such an interesting medium.<br \/>\nOne day, I just had this image in my head of a dead fox yearning for his pelt from the afterlife. It seemed a good vehicle to express the emotion I&#8217;d felt, and the story just evolved from there.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skwigly.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Tannery1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-19869 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skwigly.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Tannery1-620x349.png\" alt=\"Tannery1\" width=\"620\" height=\"349\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>The spiritual journey the characters undertake is a clearly defined one, is this down to a particular belief that you hold or that you were inspired by?<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I wouldn&#8217;t describe myself as a spiritual person &#8211; the images are very much drawn from childhood conceptions of an afterlife, the sort I was exposed to at Sunday School but with a little bit of a critique of those notions &#8211; until recently animals weren\u2019t allowed an afterlife! But there\u2019s actually a whole logic behind the existence and role of those souls within the environment of the world the story is set in which I developed for this film. I may revisit this another day if I ever get a taste to make a sequel in that universe! What we see on screen was paired down from a much bigger story which may yet come to the screen.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>You seem to have an affection for animal characters, telling stories with them at the mercy of mankind\u2019s cruelty where does this come from?<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>It\u2019s basically due to the fact that animals can\u2019t advocate for themselves. It&#8217;s always disturbed me how we take nature for granted and culturally invent tropes that justify our unbalanced relationship with the natural world. My focus is on those cultural constructs we\u2019ve developed rather than an investigation of natural history, which would be more suited to a wildlife documentary.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skwigly.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Tannery2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-19870 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.skwigly.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Tannery2-620x349.jpg\" alt=\"Tannery2\" width=\"620\" height=\"349\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>What did you use to create the look of the film?<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The film was produced by Axis Animation, already one of the leading CG animation production houses in the UK. It was a thrill to have their team realise my designs in CGI, something I think they got a kick out of as well. The match between the 2D and CGI was done the same way live action and animation was mixed in <em>Who Framed<\/em>\u00a0<em>Roger Rabbit<\/em> \u2013 print outs of the CGI backgrounds became the layout to each frame of 2D animation for those sequences &#8211; the majority of the film was traditional 2D layouts, painted in watercolour. Five years on, if I were to do it again, I reckon I\u2019d just be animating over the CGI reference directly in software like TVPaint.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>You clearly have a tie to traditional art materials, using pastel and crayon to great effect, is this a choice of comfort or a conscious style choice?<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>For <em>The Tannery<\/em> it was a very conscious choice to delve into the handmade process of animation. In the intervening years between my first film <em>Akbar\u2019s Cheetah<\/em> (one of the last animations shot on 35mm in the UK) there was a real commissioning emphasis on digital innovation. From that period came a lot of flat, cut out style animation which was a trend I followed along with as it seemed to be the only stuff that was getting commissioned at the time! But I really wanted to get back to fully drawn 2D animation and used<em> The Tannery<\/em> as a vehicle for that. Now, with the development of software such as TVPaint, I can see digital drawing developing in my practice \u2013 as in my recent music video for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dR7m6Ag4lW8\">Looper<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Akbar&#039;s Cheetah\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/102400947?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"500\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Tannery &#8211; a short film by Iain Gardner has been released online.
