Manchester's Christmas Campaign

I’m trying hard not to think about it but apparently it’s that time of year when everything has the word ‘Christmas’ attached to it in some way. Christmas plans, Christmas markets, Christmas lights, Christmas drinks, Christmas holidays, Christmas bloody shopping. This is why I’m almost sick of it when the time comes to leave work behind and try and enjoy it – because we’ve been going on about it since the middle of October.

Anyway – I’m trying to be positive. Someone’s* put together a cool little bit of animation for Visit Manchester in an attempt to draw yet more crowds (and coins) into the city over the coming month or so. It’s nice – have a look.



All items used were, apparently, found in Manchester shops. I’m off in search of the green gnome.

*’Someone’, in this case, is actually Peter Purves, along with fellow Manchester creatives Dinasour, Amaze, Loose Moose Productions and Hot Animation.
