The TVI Take

Nick Park's claymation duo. Extraordinary craft in every frame, the animation itself is educational as a demonstration of artistic dedication.

Cognitive demands from the Rube Goldberg-style inventions and the wordless comedy of Gromit. Low direct educational value but the problem-solving and British dry wit reward close attention.
