My Special Gift by Luke Acosta (extended edition).m4v

A short claymation film created and directed by an 8-year old boy, Luke Deacon L. Acosta. This winning entry in the Tang Kiddicine Film Festival is a touching tale of two friends who discover their own unique gifts and learn to be happy with what they have. Luke has always loved Tim Burton films and is also a big Nick Park fan. His likes are not typical for a little boy, so at 7 years old he started creating his own clay characters when we couldn't find the toys he likes. His favorites are Wallace & Gromit, Jack Skellington from Nightmare Before Christmas, Slimer from Ghostbusters, Super Mario Brothers and Sackboy from LittleBigPlanet. He is the kindest and most loving boy you'll ever meet.
The music was also Luke's favorites: Storytime by Danny Elfman, Futureman Theme by Mark Mothersbaugh, I Always Wanted to be a Tenenbaum by Mark Mothersbaugh, Sparkplug Minuet by Mark Mothersbaugh. This was not for profit nor commercial use -- simply the fulfillment of a dream of a kind little boy with a message to share.
