Creature Comfort

Creature comforts was originally a 1989 British humorous animated short film about how animals feel about living in a zoo, featuring the voices of the British public from very corner "spoken" by the animals.













Creature comfort allows a mundane or boring interview to come alive with expresion and bring about a character within a claymation. The original Creature Comforts short film was five minutes long and was conceived and directed by Nick Park and produced by Aardman Animations featuring the voices of British non-actors in the same vein as the "man on the street" Vox Pop interviews.

The voices of each character were performed by residents of both a housing estate and an old people's home. Stop-Motion animation was then used to animate each character, and the answers given in the interviews were put in the context of zoo animals. The Polar Bears were voiced by a family who owned a local shop, while the Mountain Lion was voiced by a Brazilian student who was living in the UK, but missed his home country.
