The Art of Siriol

'Haf' aka 'Sunshine and Friends' Animation Cels

 Rummaging through the Siriol Animation archives yesterday, I found the cels from a scene I animated from 'Haf' aka 'Sunshine and Friends' a pilot film from 1988 and my first role as an Animator. Only 2 cels missing.... hope they turn up one day!

'Gerald of Wales' Animation Cels

 Here's a few animation cels from 'Gerald of Wales' a 2 part half hour special produced by Siriol Animation for Cadw in 1987 narrated by Max Boyce.

'The Easter Egg' Animation Cel and Drawing

 Here is an animation cel and a drawing (not matching numbers) of Mic the Fox cub and Gobble Gobble the Turkey, from Siriol Animation's half hour film 'The Easter Egg' 1986. This film was the first film I started as an inbetween artist on, we would do the inbetween drawings between the animators key poses.

'Turkey Love' Animation Cels

 Here are a few more animation cels from 35 years ago! These are from the half hour special 'Turkey Love' the last film in a series of three made at Siriol Animation in 1987. I remember doing the inbetween drawings of Bethan in the boat which took a lot of pencil milage!

The first cel has some paint flaking off as it's so old!
