I thought I'd start a new thread to post any photos that appear off the studio floor in the coming weeks.

I'm kicking off with a picture of animator Dave O, getting in a tangle with a particularly complicated rig of bouncing sheep...

Nice Photos Chris. What ideas have they got for the new series? I can't wait. It looks really exciting, and I just can't wait until the new series is out! Will it be out on DVD?

Oh, and will they be new characters?

Singing sheep - Yes, the series will be out on DVD one day and yes, there will be new characters.

yippie new pix thanks chris, every time i see that schedule boards they look very confusing!!

argh im getting little red X'S for the pics again

jordan - schedule boards are mystical things that instil many varying emotions upon the beholder. Anywhere between confusion and pant-wetting fear is quite normal....

lol chris. can you fix the pics please, when i click on them to enlarge red x's appear

Why have you blocked buddy requests Chris?

I hate the X too.

Shaun looks tired. When will filming be over?

Chris,

thanks for this very nice pictures. Shaun in the office is so cool - i will print it out and put it on my wall...LOL...i hope for more pictures - this idea is fantastic!

I get the X too (maybe the server in the Shaun HQ is overheadet cause there are so many people who like this pictures...) when i load the pictures. But i had an good working idea: click on the item, right mousepad and say ...picture save at...and this works! The pictures was saved on my harddisc and i can look at it every time .
Hope it helps you too.

good night,
Chris

I'm trying to get to the bottom of the "red x"... Stay tuned.

oddly enough the last pic works fine!

ive just seen a line painter in sts 2 pic

Any answer to my question? When will filming be over so Shaun can go home and rest? I know he's young, but that's a lot of episodes to shoot. Poor sheepie.

kimpony - We are filming for the rest of this year... But it's Ok, Shaun has his own luxury Winnebago in the car park.

Thanks for answering. Shaun may be in luxury, but I'll bet he gets lonely for home. Baaaa!

Jordan - where's that then?

another website, it looks like a cool designed prop

Oh my....I love the jumping sheeps!!!

This is all truly exciting. Thanks for the pix. And I love Shaun in the office ...

Shaun's really grown up nowadays. He's such a nice company.

In the assistants area, a gaggle of animators and assistants prepare puppets to go on set.
Any suggestions for other collective nouns to describe a group of animators gratefully received....
(A "slow" of animators? A "concentration" of animators?...)
