My Grandad and my Mum |
The main subject for my animation will be my Grandad. He used to create gorgeous rocking horses out of mahogany fully from scratch which I adored playing with from a very young age. After a lot of digging around, I have been able to find images of him with the horses he loved so much. Below is a collection of just some of these precious memories that I would like to use as inspiration for my animation.
I have also found an old videotape of my Grandad with his horses - currently, I am awaiting the tape to be transferred into a digital version so I can look through the hour-long footage to see if any can be added through-out my animation.
