Morling and the Hoard


One of last years most exciting projects was to create an animation to accompany the sculptures of Katharine Morling, for the exhibition "Morling and the Hoard". Katharine created 10 sculptures based on the designs that decorate the artefacts of the Staffordshire Hoard - the largest Anglo Saxon treasure hoard ever discovered. 
My animation depicts the unearthing of the treasure by Terry Herbert, and its transformation into the ancient mythological gods that Katharine has created.
The exhibition, and animation is on permanent display at the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery in Stoke-On-Trent.

 See the animation below (There's audio, so please pump up the volume) :



Many thanks to Katharine Morling, and Emma Broughton.

Also, as an extra like on a dvd, my original storyboards are below:
