BA (Hons) Illustration with Animation
Mike Benson
I get my inspiration from artists associated with the field of experimental animation - like like Stuart Hilton, Jonathan Hodgson, Robert Breer and Kristian Andrews. I get my ideas from every day life and the people in it.
My films have a very basic formula to them. They show suggestion of movement in the form of simple line drawings and blank space, allowing the audience to fill in the gaps. I like to play with timing and the pace in which you can move the viewer from one emotion, or visual, to another.
