DESCRIPTION:
A home-animated film clip for the Taylor Project song "Whiskers in the Wall" from "Life, Death, Prizes" (2011). The song is about a possum that died in the wall at the house in Elmore. You can read the gory details here: http://www.taylorproject.com.au/blog/2011/10/29/whiskers-in-the-wall-a-possums-tale-1.html. For the film clip Liz prepared one painstaking drawing of a possum, then used Photoshop to (even more painstakingly) drag and chop it awkwardly over the top of various scenes. Rooms in Elmore, movies about death and reincarnation, and the old DOS game 'Alley Cat' make an appearance. There are also drawings of the possum's skeleton and of the nectarine tree we planted over it (note: not accurate representation of either a nectarine tree, or of tree growth).
