A one-man studio shares a bit of claymation joy this winter season.
A stop-motion sing-along carol,A Very Careful Christmas is a new COVID-themed holiday tune, full of charming characters and knick-knacks raided from the family Christmas decoration box. With some slant rhyming and a whole lot of heart, Andy Martin delivers a seasonal pick-me-up that is sure to delight.
The whole thing was written, sung, shot, animated, and produced entirely by Andy Martin, and the effect is wonderfully fetching and kind. A Very Careful Christmas also does what a lot of Covid-centric pieces don’t; which is looking to the future with a positive slant, while also remaining firmly grounded in reality. Not bad for a bit of clay.
