Dying Snowman (Stop Motion Animation)

Synopsis - The heart wrenching story of a battling snowman that cannot avoid the fate of one day melting.

History - The photographs were taken sometime in early February 2007. I only got round to editing the video on May 27th 2007 due to losing the usb cable for my digital camera - grrr! Also youtube banned my last account for issues of piracy.

Production - The editing and special effects took around 1 hour of production time while the music selection took a whole 2 hours more due to over obsessing, lol.

Judgement - I only wish i had invested in an ice machine since i was sad to see the little buddy (6ft tall) go . I know he's up there in the sky somewhere, waiting to be rebuilt on another snowy winter's day.

Snowman, this video is for you!

Thankyou Wrapdump & Ted, your beautiful words alone would have melted the heart of our poor snowman. An extra special thanks goes to Ted for spotting the shapeshifter Dylan who was part of our very secret special contest, sorry we have no prizes, better luck next time.

sniff* sniff* This snowman fought a long hard fight - we must be strong - he went through sublimation which made his soul (in the form of a gas) go up to the skies...he was a saint...... HAHAHAHAHAHAH
