When we decided to do stop-motion, the first people I reached out to were Mikey and Dan because Robin Robin was my favorite animated film in years and I knew they liked OTGW. But I didn't realize they were full-time at Aardman, and I'm sure I never would have had the gall to reach out to Aardman to do a 2-minute OTGW short. When I was growing up and getting interested in animation, Aardman was like the pinnacle to me.
I believe everybody was on board right away! I would have loved to work with Jack Jones again, who did the narration, but everyone else was excited to be involved.
Aardman was like the pinnacle to me, so working with them and getting to visit their studio has been pretty magical. Dan and Mikey knocked it out of the park with this short.
The stop-motion short blends seamlessly into the spirit of 'Over the Garden Wall,' while exploring even deeper themes set within its charming yet mysterious narrative.
