This is a script\/storyboard (plus some other bits) for a cartoon that I pitched unsuccessfully to the BFi for their Animation 2018 project (the winners of which are being shown on BBC Four this Sunday<\/a>, and which should be brilliant).<\/p>\n

If it had actually been made, it would have had sets built by Dan Rawlings<\/a> and sound design by Chriddof<\/a>, with slightly inept claymation (with wooden heads) animation by me (which was presumably the reason it wasn’t commissioned).<\/p>\n

Also the other reason it probably wasn’t commissioned is because it is absolutely the most depressing thing I’ve ever written.<\/p>\n

[Some of the models for this were later re-used in They Locked Me In This Room And Told Me To Confess<\/a>, which was another unsuccessful submission for a thing (the Observer Short Comic Competition thing they run each year). Maybe these poor plasticine abominations are cursed in some way.]<\/p>\n
