The difficulty of filming Shaun The Sheep

The film tells the adventures of Shaun and his friends in town

Shaun The Sheep difficult to make but easy to love. In the near future, Shaun and his friends will stop at the cinema. Check out our interview with the film's director.



Shaun made of modeling clay 18cm tall and weighing, roughly, like a mango.

For the making of this film, Shaun modified thousands of times under the hot studio lights.

As another movie star, Shaun has a replacement actor as much as 21. So director Mark Burton and Richard Starzak can be filmed dozens of scenes simultaneously. If not, Shaun The Sheep: The Movie will take nine years to complete.

Seventeen animators make this movie and each producing scenes along two seconds per day

But the process of making this film also has adverse effects for the human being behind it. Burton admitted he was "hiding in the toilet" to calm down.

"As it became a cabinet minister," he explained. "Every second day you've planned.

"We must always move forward, make a decision. You have to go into the room and instantly know you are in the last story where, what is wrong, what should be done and then move on to the next problem.

"There is no reason to stop even if I had a headache, or hungry, or even want to go to the bathroom!"

Starzak added, "Even if you did have to go to the restroom, there are people who stand at the door and say, 'yes, he will soon come to you. I think he only did the number one [urinate]."

Climax dilemma

In the film version, Shaun out of the farm and go to town, after he had an accident in a caravan so amnesia.

But the mission to rescue becomes difficult by the presence of an animal catcher who want to confine Shaun.

As with other Aardman production, the film is full of humor and wordplay (there is a coffee shop called Costly Coffee or Coffee Mahal).

Both the director said of the film was inspired by the adventures of Ferris Bueller, while the first Pixar film, Wall-E, giving them the confidence that the audience will continue to sit down and watch a movie without this dialogue.

According to Aardman, 11-year-old Shaun the sheep age (two years in human age 22 days)

They also mention the climax Toy Story 3 are very sad, where Woody and Buzz almost burnt.

"I came home from the cinema with my children while fighting back tears behind the wheel of a car," said Starzak.

"It's a good question PhD. Is a film should make you trauma to be a good movie?

There is only one line of dialogue in the film, but there are 1,589 bleating

"It made us think about the end of our movie," Burton added. "The climax is quite dark. But we hope the audience will like it."

"It's really a challenge for filmmakers because if you are wrong, you will not get the money!"
