The Snowman and the Snowdog...

Next tuesday is christmas day and in my house we have a tradition of watching The Snowman by Raymond Briggs. I love this animation, its a christmas classic!!

Imagine my excitement when I find out there making a sequel for this christmas called The Snowman and the Snowdog! This one is set when the boy is a little bit older and as well as The Snowman he creates a Snowdog to go on an adventure with.

The animation is still hand draw but the creators have added a digital enhancement to the way its put together.

Here is a clip I found on youtube about the making of the Snowman and the Snowdog. It's  extremely fascinating how they create the final piece. 

Do you normally watch The Snowman at christmas? What is your favourite bit? the music? the images?
