'Private Parts'

It's Nice That recently posted an article about Anna Ginsburg's latest project in association with Channel 4's Random Acts all about sex and that oh so British tendency to not talk about anything remotely related to the bedroom that's not sleep. With a team of 14 other animators and 22 interviewees, Anna created a witty, whimsical approach to talking about peens and vjayjays, and I think it's the animated comfort zone she's created that allows this discourse to happen without it being 'unseemly'.
It's pretty reminiscent of the old school Aardman Creature Comforts classics in tone, using real interviews to give authenticity to the variety of views represented. I also think it's lovely that this is a collaborative effort, but that the film holds together cohesively despite a range of animators being involved and bringing their own style to the audio.
All in all, just a lovely example of traditional animation being used to create conversation in a public platform by Channel 4. Well worth a watch and a read of the article! http://www.itsnicethat.com/features/anna-ginsberg-private-parts-channel-4-random-acts-170516
