  • BAGPUSS TURNS 40! Submitted By: DDA Blueprint Tuesday, 11 February 2014
    BAGPUSS TURNS 40! Submitted by: DDA Blueprint Tuesday, 11 February 2014 40th anniversary of classic television character London, 12 February 2014. Much-loved iconic cat Bagpuss is celebrating his 40th birthday on 12 February, the anniversary when the show first broadcast on the BBC in 1974. Fans of that "old, saggy cloth cat, baggy, and a bit loose at the seams" will be able to join the celebrations throughout the year by watching HD, digitally re-mastered episodes of the original series at Picture House Cinemas throughout the UK. New HD DVDS, books and merchandise will also be launching in 2014 to commemorate the landmark anniversary. Created by children’s entertainment veterans Oliver Postgate and Peter Firmin, also responsible for cherished classics like Clangers and Ivor the Engine, Bagpuss is still fondly remembered by generations of Britons today. Coolabi, the company which represents the rights to the brand, has kept this cultural heritage alive, and the 40th year will see a range of Bagpuss themed product available to fans - including collectable Royal Mail stamps, pet accessories, clothing, and even garden seeds. Although just 13 episodes of Bagpuss were made, the shows ran for 26 weeks a year for 13 years, and the cuddly cat’s fan base continues to grow. Channel 5 recently voted Bagpuss the third greatest kids TV programme of all time, and best character show, in a nostalgic countdown of the 50 best British children’s TV series over the past 60 years. Michael Dee, Director of Content at Coolabi says: “Bagpuss has been one of the most beloved children’s characters for 40 years, and we are thrilled that he remains as popular as ever with fans of all ages.

  • Ivor the Engine Railway Adventure Launched As an Iphone Game Submitted By: Dreadnought Design Limited Thursday, 12 May 2011
    Ivor the Engine railway adventure launched as an iPhone game Submitted by: Dreadnought Design Limited Thursday, 12 May 2011 London, UK - May 12, 2011 - Dreadnought Design, the innovative mobile games design studio behind the re-launch of Ivor the Engine to mobile gaming platforms, today announced the release of their Ivor the Engine game app for Apple’s iPhone. In Ivor and the Dragon, which was originally launched as an iPad game in April 2011, players immerse themselves in a Welsh railway adventure with Ivor the Engine and his driver, Jones the Steam. Together they must solve a series of puzzles along the famed Merioneth and Llantisilly Rail Traction Company Limited railway, as featured in the BBC TV series, in an adaptation of an original story by the late Oliver Postgate. The game features Peter Firmin’s original character artwork newly restored and rendered as high-definition graphics for the very first time. Along with Ivor’s original music by Vernon Elliott, Dreadnought Design’s Ivor and the Dragon iPhone game promises to bring an exciting railway adventure story in the authentic Smallfilms style to children and adults of all ages. Oliver Postgate’s son, Daniel Postgate, says: “My father’s wish was for all the Smallfilms materials to eventually be made available online for everyone to enjoy again, so when we were approached by Dreadnought Design last year, the timing seemed to be perfect for development to begin. Peter Firmin and I are very excited about the launch of this game on the iPhone as well as the iPad, and are delighted that Dreadnought Design have managed to keep the authenticity of the series while managing to bring it back for today’s market.” A series of interactive storybooks based on original Ivor the Engine stories are also under development and will be released under the newly created Smallworlds brand.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Ivor the Engine the Dragon by Oliver Postgate Ivor the Engine: the Dragon by Oliver Postgate
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Ivor the Engine The Dragon by Oliver Postgate Ivor the Engine: The Dragon by Oliver Postgate. Voices: Oliver Postgate; David Edwards; Olwen Griffiths (Series 2 & 3); Anthony Jackson. The animated adventures of Ivor, a Welsh steam engine with a life of its own, and his driver Jones the Steam. This tale of a Welsh steam engine with a personality was inspired by the work of Dylan Thomas and the anecdotes of an engine-driver friend of Oliver Postgate 's. Ivor was a traction engine for the Merioneth and Llantisilly Rail Traction Company, one day found out of sorts by his driver Jones the Steam. Jones soon discovered that Ivor wanted to lend his pipes to Evans the Song's choir and so helped the engine's dream come true. Postgate used primitive stop-motion of paper cut outs, learning about timing and synchronising soundtracks as he went along (the refined technique was later used on Noggin the Nog , BBC, 1959). Also central to the series' success was Vernon Elliott 's music and Ivor's dialogue chuffing ('Psst- koff'). Rediffusion executives interrupted the weekly board meeting to watch the series and asked for a further thirteen episodes, but Postgate declined, arguing that Ivor's story was told. Nonetheless, Postgate was soon writing new tales for TV Land comic - opening up the valley landscape and introducing characters such as upper-class animal lover Mrs Porty, Mr Dinwiddy the gold prospector and Idris, the little dragon who lived in Ivor's coal furnace. Before long, Ivor was back for another twenty-six episodes.

  • Chris Pallant Do You Speak Clanger? – an Introductory History of the Smallfilms Studio
    Panel B4 Sala Emiciclo National Experiences in Animation II Chris Pallant Do you speak Clanger? – An introductory history of the Smallfilms studio The iconic animations produced by Canterbury-based Smallfilms studio between 1958- 1984, including Ivor the Engine, Noggin the Nog, Pingwings, Pogles’ Wood, Clangers, and Bagpuss, amongst others, constitute a significant thread of British cultural history. Furthermore, a show like Clangers, which enjoyed a reboot in 2015 (BBC/NBC), confirms the lasting popular appeal of the story worlds – and the animation aesthetics contained therein – created by Smallfilms. However, these works are largely overlooked in the existing scholarly literature and are even less well known internationally. To help remedy this, I am currently initiating a Leverhulme Trust-funded research project to establish a comprehensive historical record of Smallfilms and their animated films. As part of this project I have been granted access to the surviving studio site and all archival documents, as well as the full co-operation of Smallfilms co-founder Peter Firmin. Consequently, this paper will serve a double purpose: to provide a bitesize historical account of the Smallfilms studio as well as providing an up-to-date account of this ongoing research project. Audience members can look forward to short clips from the animated shows, pictures from the archive, and original interview footage filmed with Peter Firmin. Biography Dr Chris Pallant is a Senior Lecturer at Canterbury Christ Church University. He is the author of Demystifying Disney: A History of Disney Feature Animation (2011), co-author of Storyboarding: A Critical History (2015) and editor of Animated Landscapes: History, Form and Function (2015) and the forthcoming four-volume Animation: Collected Published Writings (2017).
