Tahiti Boy and the palm tree family

Tahiti boy and the palmtree family 1973 

Tahiti boy and the palm tree family was definitely not created in 1973, but it is a beautiful piece of animation none the less, and I love the fact that not only have they added actual animated 2D characters, but they have also tracked mouths onto the palm tree’s to make them sing etc.  

 

I also loved this Forrest scene where they have either stood behind trees or composited their arms into the scene to make it look as if the tree’s are alive. 

 

I also like how the band have placed their faces withing this Giant sun/ face, which moves all over the place, blinks and opens this mouth The whole way through. 

 

The animation is very simple yet effective, for example this little guy here just bob’s from side to side and I believe he was created on after effects using the puppet pinning tool. 

  

 

This final scene is a zoom out of all the action that is going on,  it looks very very monty python but It probably took half the time, and was all done on a computer, not to sure about some of the illustrations though, they could  be drawn and scanned in.
