Let’s Get Naked

An animation about the joy of being naked that I have made for the Dutch version of the children’s tv-show Sesame Street.

The animation accompanies a poem composed by writer Karel Eykman. It talks about the joy of taking a bath and being naked. While making it, I found inspiration by diving into my own childhood memories about bathing. I also did a lot of sketching at the seaside, where I could observe how children play in the water. I turned my best ideas into the storyboard seen below.

I made the animation using a combination of papercutting and digital drawing techniques.
