2026How Will Anderson and Ainslie Henderson brought stop motion sorcery to BBC’s Small Prophets
The stop-motion animation duo Will Anderson and Ainslie Henderson joined us on May’s Nicer Tuesdays stage hot off the heels of their work in the hit BBC show Small Prophets by Mackenzie Crook! In this talk, the two animation alchemists shared a boat-load of behind-the-scenes footage of how they achieved the brilliantly creepy homunculus, the titular monstrous prophets that run amok in the fantasy-drama. Thanks to EartH (Evolutionary Arts Hackney).
