Phil Baxter

Music is something that is going to be very important for this film. The film is musically driven because it is essentially a silent film, I designed the film with the excellent Pixar shorts as a template. I want to move the story forward with character animation and music and even though I enjoy lip-sync animation, I am more concerned with emotion through movement and changes in environment.

This is where a certain young and talented musician comes in, Phil Baxter. Phil is a singer/song writer from Merseyside who currently resides in London. Phil has written many great songs and many of them can be found on his myspace page - Phil Baxter.



Phil's musical knowledge is incredible and has an amazing voice, his lyrics are thoughtful with riffs to match. Phil has been very kind in lending his services to this project and I think that this will give the film a much needed edge especially when trying to flesh out storyboards and animatics. Having Phil along with Matt, Christian and Rachel has made this project real and now has the makings of a proper team. It's all getting very exciting.
