For the upcoming Armageddon Expo in New Zealand, the fellas at Mukpuddy whipped together a short piece of fanboy fun. R2-D2 and a Dalek named Derek spout off at the water cooler.
The New Zealand animation squad formally known as Mukpuddy have given birth to a Nickelodeon pilot. Dirk Banzai is actually over 10 years old, and was the very first Mukpuddy character, but when Nickelodeon International invited the team to produce a pilot for their Open Mic program, they brought him back into the limelight. Below is the full 4:30 minute pilot, and you can see a whole slew of production art over at the Muks’ blog.
Check out this new pilot from New Zealand-based Mukpuddy. The Stallion is a collaborative effort they’ve embarked on with Jamie Linehan and Ben Boyce, the stars of Pulp Sport, a popular New Zealand sketch comedy show. It’s an adult-skewing, Flash-animated series, staring Edward the Horse and Warren the Rabbit. I love this title sequence song.
It’s apparently Mukpuddy month. We recently posted their interview on New Zealand’s 20/20 program, and below you can see the animated titles the Auckland-based studio created for Studio 2, a children’s television show, which airs on TV2. Not surprisingly, the Mukpuddy fellas have been interviewed on the show too.
The Kiwi animation team known as Mukpuddy was featured on New Zealand’s 20/20 program back in 2008, and you can now see the 12-minute segment on YouTube. The clips reveals that Nickelodeon’s Nina Hahn has commissioned a pilot from the team.
and here’s part 2.
