Books
Claymation experts Aardman are responsible for some of our most beloved animated characters like Wallace and Gromit, Morph and Shaun the Sheep. The multiple Oscar winners have also brought out some of the biggest animation films in recent decades such as Chicken Run, Curse of the Were-Rabbit, and Arthur Christmas. But how did Peter Lord and David Sproxton grow the company from such humble beginnings to their world-class studio in Bristol? How did they develop their unique style of animating clay? How did they meet the brilliant Nick Park? And how on earth did they conquer Hollywood? This is the intimate, revealing, fascinating and funny behind-the-scenes story of Aardman Animations, told in their own words.
