My Hometown - the nature of the north animated Churchill MB

The Nature of the North Animated Short "My Hometown" is a 4 minute animation depicting the landscapes & wildlife of Churchill Manitoba in Canada's arctic by Canadian Artist and Designer Kim Hunter. This animated short was my first, inspired by my longing for the north during the fleeting arctic summer days. It is a symbol of a much deserving reverence and affinity for this majestic and unforgiving wilderness. ENJOY!

This is a totally adorable video! You are very talented. My girls loved the entire piece & couldn't take their eyes off of it. That is saying a lot since they both have the attention span of a mosquito...lol!

As a Canadian from the urban south, it is easy to forget that our country is mostly wilderness! Excellent video!

Good job Kim! I live down south with my two sibes, we get very little snow In west Tenn. They love snow, just dont get to see much of it. Hope to see more animation from you.

Are you and Tundra on Sibernet?
