Row row row your boat - Nursery rhyme



Lyrics below
Row row row  your boat - Nursery rhyme  




Row, row, row your boat,
Gently down the stream.

Merrily, merrily,merrily, merrily,
Life is but a dream.




THE STORY BEHIND THE VIDEO
While I was bringing the last touch to the "10 little indians" video, I thought: why not making a canoe? This could give me the opportunity to enlarge the frame and make a large landscape (or waterscape:) like the one I really like!


I grew up with comics books. Mainly nice stories of adventures, and large landscapes. When I became a teenager, I really liked the stories of Hugo Pratt: Corto Maltese.  There are scenes at the beginning with large screen on the sea with the sun. 
And then I discovered cinema with all these large frames. So, this is probably one of my first attempt to show simply the beauty of nature. 


This has been a terrific experience. I learnt a lot. And even if it seemed easy at the beginning. I already had most of the images and animation. I just worked on the racoon boy and girl, on the canoe, plus a few things. But the whole thing was a mess to manage. So many pieces here and there. 
It's funny because it seems so simple, but believe me, it's not. :)


 (I know many things still sucks in the video (sound and music in that genre is all new for me), but I'm learning... and every day is a school day:) Please let me know what you think, OK?


Have a great day!
Take care, 


Pascal
