The Wrong Trousers

Title/Opening Credits: The title and opening credit scenes are actually static scenes (at least in the sense of the stop motion animation) while there are compute generated animations and a camera angle change. They also add a horror movie-esque feel with creepy music and shots that resembled an old horror movie.

Story/Plot/Narrative: The story in this short film is all about an evil penguin who manipulates a man into stealing a diamond with a pair of electronic dog walking trousers he bought. The penguin of course ends up in jail (the zoo) in the end when Gromit assists his owner/friend in capturing the penguin.

Motif: A very noticeable motif throughout the film was when Gromit, the dog would read the news paper and on the newspaper there was also an article relevant to dogs. Another would be the amount of eerie music played when the penguin was in a scene and the camera angles to depict him as a creepy/evil mastermind.

Characterization: Wallace and Gromit aren't really seen as a dog and his owner so much as a couple of friends who balance each other out. The trousers can be seen themselves as a character as they played such a large role in the film. The penguin is depicted throughout the film as a bad character and fulfills his role.

Scene/Set: The film was shot on a tiny film set for the claymation. This scene is in London and it fits the film perfectly, it may not have been able to be filmed in a different scene unless adjustments were made to the plot.

Bloge Announcement

This is a Bloge of peace and tranquility, if you can't accept that well I guess we'll just have to about that maybe, or possibly we won't I actually was just kidding but this sentence must keep going on as long as possible so I can obviously keep you interested in this Bloge for if you lose interest, I have not done my part in society as Chief Bloge Creator of All Time Overlord Senior III, but instead dwindled my talent as an immortal. This Bloge goes out to the ones that helped me thus far including dear Doug Kelin who inspired many souls within the confines of his sacred digital media lab doohicky place.
