The 5-minute short film
Creature Comforts
was conceived and directed by Nick Park, and produced by Aardman Animations
featuring the voice acting of common, everyday members of the British public.
The film shows various animals in a zoo being interviewed about their living conditions. These include turtles, a female gorilla, a family of polar bears and a melancholic puma who complains about the lack of "space" and the "grass with pollen that gives me hay fever every day!"
The dialogue was created by interviewing residents of a housing development, an old folks' home and a family that lived in a local shop (the polar bears). Clay animation was then created that attributed the answers to zoo animals.
One of the most popular characters was the puma. He was in fact a Brazilian student who lived in a hotel and was talking about his own situation. The film won an Academy Award for Animated Short Film, beating off the challenge of two other films — one of which, A Grand Day Out
, was also a creation of Nick Park.
