Director's Comments

My entry for the Bricks in Motion Twenty Four Hour Animation Contest. I feel so accomplished. One full day. One liter of Mountain Dew Code Red. Two Landshire sandwiches. Numerous bodily aches. Zero hours of sleep...if I wasn't a true brickfilmer before, I think I am now.

The theme of THAC 7 was The Unexpected. I feel I succeeded in that task. Be surprised, watch the film!

Staff Review

Randy Yard:
Nich has given this film a deceptive title... suffice to say that there is no "park," "walking," or "pleasantness" anywhere to be found in this short... and so, I won't spoil his fun by revealing here what really happens. Suffice to say that this is a film that has been made many times before, but quality props, entertaining animation that leans heavily towards stylized rather than realistic, and the mock earnestness with which it is handled here makes this one stand out from the pack. It's nothing spectacular, but fans of... well, this genre... won't demand their two minutes back.
