The audio utilized in this short film was recorded in 2004 by my friend and colleague, Jim Hort, using a budget MP3 player in his caravan. The original animation, entitled “Allen and Merve,” was created by Jim as a potential series. In 2015, I embarked on a personal project to reanimate the original 2004 short using the original audio recordings, with the goal of developing the series. Although the project did not progress beyond the pilot stage, it was a highly enjoyable and rewarding endeavor.
