Excellent stuff - I was impressed too by the fact he couldn't bring himself to cut "See Emily Play" short and so left a minute or so of black screen - the man has style! Did anyone apart from Nick Park used to do stop-motion animation before YouTube was invented? A personal fave is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBvDm_JLEcI - look at the scars on that fella's legs - he *could* be a cyclist....

I'm fairly sure that Nick Park actually started off working for the team (David Sproxton & Peter Lord) that did the Morph animated shorts on "Take Hart" and suchlike....
