Did you know that seahorses are the only species on the planet where the MALES carry the babies? Check out http://www.shinygrape.com for more fun stuff! ____ Backstory: Gestation Sensation explores a male seahorse's discomfort during pregnancy. The film was traditionally animated (with a pencil & paper!) and then composited with After FX at the Philadelphia University of the Arts for my junior thesis project. This entire film was created in about three weeks because I had to scrap the original idea due to..err..."Copyright Issues." Believe it or not, at the beginning of the semester, I began production on a film called "Fabian Fish", a tale about a clownfish and a yellow tang trying to escape from a fishbowl (but the clownfish keeps forgetting "the plan" every few seconds.) Sound familiar? Yeah. A month before the due date, my professor played the teaser for "Finding Nemo." I thought someone was playing a VERY expensive joke on me!!! I was basically in mid-production of the freakin "Dentists Office" scene in that movie - annoying pig-tailed, brace-faced girl and all! What the HECK are the odds of that? So, I created Gestation Sensation and prayed that there wouldn't be a scene in Finding Nemo of a seahorse exploding into a cloud of babies! (It didn't happen! I'm still safe!)
