Yeah, claymation animators get huge props for that, well, most animators in general, really. Be thankful it's a western studio where they animate the mouth to match the lip sync and it ain't anime with its muppet mouth flaps xD
I often quote the Brazilian jaguar. Anytime it’s sunny outside (blue-uh skies, you know...where I can see dee sun all day) or when I’m going out for steak. Nobody knows what I’m talking about.
I remember watching this a lot as a kid and I used to think it was scripted. Literally found out today that it was just interviews with the general public. Like it even more now lol
that's not the point - the film is called Creature Comforts - but the animals are talking about their life in a zoo and what they feel / think about living in captivity. Don't let the ordinary voices fool you :-D
DJPAULETTEREAL Ordinary members of the British public were interviewed and then the animation was made to synch with their comments. It’s on the end of the video if you bothered to read this so yes, they are ‘ ordinary voices’ it’s nothing to do with running out if story ideas, if you’ve ever seen any Aardman productions you would know they have plenty of story of story ideas.
Did y’all know that while this was in production, Aardman animation was helping Nick Park finish his first ever Wallace and Gromit short for a graduation project? Nick was helping them with this short and in return they helped him finish on time.
I must say, I really like how this is put together, and how they interviewed people for real to animate animals speaking the unscripted lines. I can definitely see why this beat _A Grand Day Out_ for the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film - and hey, at least they have the same creator! :)
It's like losing against yourself but also winning against yourself. A similar thing happened in the Best Original Score category this 2021 Oscars when two Trent Reznor scores got nominated: David Fincher's Mank, and Disney-Pixar's Soul. Soul won.
@@bdeneris Brazilians really love meat and in some colder parts of the world meat isnt as present as in Brasil. I went to live in Sweden for 4 years and I kinda agree with him. Could have still been scripted, though.
You can see the fingermarks on the clay (and I like that) but the way they brought it to life, and it took months and years, is just something else. The comedic vision. The perfection, all the surroundings at the same time. Aardman fan since a child.
4:50 I. Have. Been. Looking. For. This. Clip. For. Over. Twenty. *YEARS!!* I never knew what to search for, but search algorithms have gotten so good that I whimsically decided to search for _tell me right now and I go claymation lion_ and BOOM! Brilliant. 💛
Geez I kinda forget how much forethought goes into stop-motion. Lipsyncing frame by frame with little to no editing afterward. Yeah new appreciation for stop-motion animators.
The jaguar is like Ayrton Senna complaining when drivers should leave a space during a turn and talk about how the environment in other countries are different in Brazil
as a brazilian myself, i'm almost 100% sure the guy that made the voice for the jaguar is also brazilian, the way that he says technology gives it away
He's usually everyone's favorite because it's so obvious he's sick of the British weather. My 2nd favorite is the crowded tree rat mom with all the little flailing arms around her.
ALL of the creativity coming from Aardman is Genius!!! I can watch for days and weeks on end!...combination of kid friendly entertainment and adult comedy!
@@zacmumblethunder7466 they announced last year that there will be another 30 minute short in development, most likely with Ben Whitehead replacing Wallace which is the voice actor that took over the last few years. He does a great voice
When my brother and I were kids, we watched this short all the time and the following series afterwards. I'm surprised they did not try to get back in touch with the fella behind the Jaguar the same way they got back the fella behind the tortoise. I hope that jaguar got his space in the end...
Brilliant! Thank you for this channel,; the timing, the humor, the animals' expressions are all impeccable and I find these shows endlessly funny. You are geniuses!
39 and this short is still engrained in my brain along with many other movie quotes (and a lot of Fawlty Towers too admittedly). The animation brought these interview voices to life and gave them new character. We wouldn't have remembered them if we saw the original humans in the interviews.
1989, my father was unsure of how to use the VCR and asked I record the Channel 4 news for him. Occasionally, they could not get the full 1 hour slot and a filler was sometimes used. When I was investigating what was on the tape, this animation popped up after said news. It was the most fantastic thing I had even recorded in error…..
This is possibly my favorite animated short of all time! Incredible stuff. A great concept perfectly executed. I loved it when it first came out, and I love it now, many years later!
I'm Brazilian and I understand well what the jaguar is talking about. Imagine moving from a warm and sunny continental country to a cold and foggy little island? England may be richer, but I imagine how suffocating it must be to live in a tiny cubicle inside a little cold island eating only potatoes day and night after living all your life in the large warm and sunny spaces of Brazil used to eating meat along with the potatoes.
Oh my God, I can’t believe this is actually on here, I was just looking this up by chance. I first saw this on Nickelodeon a long time ago, and they played it for a little bit between shows. My mom and I used to laugh at the mountain lion - “We don’t like potatoes, we like meat, fresh MEAT”. 😂😂😂 Thank you so much for posting this
This worked so well it seems because modern city life for the majority of the humans living in them feels a LOT like living in an enclosure in a zoo. That's exactly what I feel like where I live, it's exactly like a confined and artificial habitat/enclosure and there is no escape from it. I totally identify, which is why I love this short so much. I think I actually appreciate it now even more so today than ever before, that's not a good thing when it comes to how I feel about where I live. It's exactly the same feeling. Like an animal in an artificial habitat in a zoo. I live in Tampa Florida. Take it from me it's not worth visiting for a vacation.
I send this to my College roommate every year on his birthday because in 1992 we must have watched it 300 times. There are so many great parts. My favorite is facial expressions the polar bear parents give every time Andrew starts talking! Love it!
I remember when I first saw this as a kid on Nickelodeon, I was blown away! It’s still amazing what can be done with stop motion animation in the hands of geniuses!!
I remember watching this original creature comforts on 📀 from Christmas 🎄 2002, when I was about 6 years old. But, my dad destroyed it at the time, when it has adult themes like Adam and not without my 👜 as I was 11 years old.
@Laura B, me too. I remember seeing this short video a long time ago. About the time I was in the second grade. I can picture my old classmates back 30 years ago seeing the part where that one hippo🦛in the back around 1:02 that pooped, they be like, “E-e-w!” You know? But, man, it’s just been so many years since Nickelodeon had such decent shows for my generation of kids back then could watch. Oh, such good memories.
@@nathancruz9172 thanks for reminding me. Everyone keeps saying it's a jaguar. But still, that guy who's voice was used for it deserves to be in the voice acting industry.

That is my favorite. I am Brazilian, and the Jaguar accent is so much fun to hear. Sounds just like me ... The monkey does not like to be rained on ... awesome. They really should not be in cages.
Oh my god! I was a baby when I saw this the last time and that was over 20 years ago. It was on my Wallace and Gromit: A Grande Day Out video cassette, I couldn't remember the title of it for the life of me all these years.

Short clips like these stay with you for life. Thank you so much for uploading this and making me smile today
I knew about this short but I actually had never seen it and now it has become probably one of my favorite animated shorts ever...also on a more geekish side note, now I love a lot more "Wallace & gromit in The project Zoo" because many of the designs of the zoo animals are based on this short... what a great tribute to Nick park and Aardmans origins...
The koala appreciating being well-looked after perfectly sums up koalas. They're pretty much too dumb to live if they don't have every _extremely_ specific little thing they need literally laid out for them their entire lives.
Это сколько нужно было времени, чтобы льву каждое движение рук так четко прорабатывать, несмотря на то, что он особо не двигается. Эмоции настолько хорошо сделаны, что он больше походит не на пластилиновую анимацию, а как будто перед тобой живой человек.
This short is sort of a core memory as I remember they would play it VERY early in the morning on Nickelodeon so I'd end up seeing it while waiting for other shows to come on. Good times
It just doesn’t get old. The detail is incredible. Right down to the turtles adams apple when he swallows. And knowing it’s real people being interviewed, The dad who is afraid to say he likes steak, and then embarrassed by his son saying steak with lion. Genius, it’s up there with Star Wars and Gladiator.
This is the same animator that did the movie about the escaping chickens from a chicken ranch...I can't remember the name of the movie, sorry, but I do remember watching these series on t.v. for a short time years ago... GENIUS is all I can say.
This is actually one of the first things I remember seeing on a TV screen. Probably around '92-'93 and on video cassette. I could still remember the upcoming chuckles (turtle heading the beach ball, bird pulling the others beak), would have my little toddler ass in hysterics.
Absolutely wonderful. I first saw this film in 1990 and watched it and over. And I think the Brazilian puma is my favorite, and when I learned that the voices were all of regular people, and the puma's was of a Brazilian student, the film meant even more to me.
ICYDK, The Jaguar also makes a cameo in The Wrong Trousers as a museum exhibit. I recently watched Wrong Trousers after watching a bit of this, and I instantly recognised the Jaguar when I saw him.
OMG - I saw the series when I lived in Italy in 2005, but the title in Italian never translated to something I could find. Just on Aardman's site and saw the Creature Discomforts, same format, and finally found this! Yeah! Can't wait to watch them all in English :)
I love the jaguar he's so passionate about having space lol
For me it is also the best part. After that the tortoises/turtles.

Such a good idea, it makes what they say feel so natural, because it is!
I'm in awe of how well the animator paid attention to how a mouth moves when the voice is accented or has an impediment.
It's part of Nick Parks
Nick Park is amazing
Oh how you were right, look at the Jaguar.
Have u even ever heard of AARDMAN!?
Yeah, claymation animators get huge props for that, well, most animators in general, really.
Be thankful it's a western studio where they animate the mouth to match the lip sync and it ain't anime with its muppet mouth flaps xD
The Brazilian Jaguar pretty much stole the show. The Polar bears are very funny.
apparently according to Peter Lord, the The Polar Bears were a family who owned a nearby corner shop...
Cole Wright I don’t think that’s a jaguar. No spots. Probably a puma
Cole Wright is this show for grown ups?
I often quote the Brazilian jaguar. Anytime it’s sunny outside (blue-uh skies, you know...where I can see dee sun all day) or when I’m going out for steak. Nobody knows what I’m talking about.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe that the Brazilian puma is voiced by an exchange student who hated Britain and missed Brazil.
When the cougar points out the “double glazing” - genius 😂😂😂

Me too.
‘Carnivorous’
Explain yourself
Yeah but what they’re talking about is pretty specific to the experiences of zoo animals and not random people on the street.

The animation on this is more nuanced and naturalistic than I was expecting.

I gotta be honest here, a Brazilian mountain lion voice by a Brazilian accent is so fitting. We need more of him
That Jaguar speaks the damn truth. He isn't as conservative as like most of the other animals.
Puma
I thought it was lion but you're right
Its a jaguar?
I thought it was a lion but it’s a puma from Brazil
I think it's a cougar.

It was a Brazillian Student living in the UK that done the voice.

It still astonishes me that Nick Park's first two films got nominated for a best animated short oscar AND ended up winning!
If this wasn’t scripted why did the puma talk about the food looking like dog food and he wanted more meat? Sounds like parts were in fact scripted.

I like the hippos and the bushbaby or maybe a tarsier

+Becky Todd he mentioned brazil
It is supposed to be a Jaguar - the animator decided to not add the spots because it would have taken too long to animate
My brasilieira talks exactly like that Puma...I love it when she does that!

I knew about this short but I actually had never seen it and now it has become probably one of my favorite animated shorts ever...also on a more geekish side note, now I love a lot more "Wallace & gromit in The project Zoo" because many of the designs of the zoo animals are based on this short... what a great tribute to Nick park and Aardmans origins...
This was always the highlight of every animation film festival.
Beautiful animation and highlighting the real tragedy of zoos.
After spending two years in London I completely understand where the Brazilian puma is coming from.
Always a delight to watch. Thanks for sharing.
I haven’t seen a short film when it aired on Nickelodeon Back in the 80s and early 90s.
The koala appreciating being well-looked after perfectly sums up koalas. They're pretty much too dumb to live if they don't have every _extremely_ specific little thing they need literally laid out for them their entire lives.
Это сколько нужно было времени, чтобы льву каждое движение рук так четко прорабатывать, несмотря на то, что он особо не двигается. Эмоции настолько хорошо сделаны, что он больше походит не на пластилиновую анимацию, а как будто перед тобой живой человек.
This short is sort of a core memory as I remember they would play it VERY early in the morning on Nickelodeon so I'd end up seeing it while waiting for other shows to come on. Good times
That Jaguar sounds just like the great Ayrton Senna. It's uncanny!
It’s actually a puma.
not That much
It just doesn’t get old. The detail is incredible. Right down to the turtles adams apple when he swallows. And knowing it’s real people being interviewed, The dad who is afraid to say he likes steak, and then embarrassed by his son saying steak with lion. Genius, it’s up there with Star Wars and Gladiator.
This is the same animator that did the movie about the escaping chickens from a chicken ranch...I can't remember the name of the movie, sorry, but I do remember watching these series on t.v. for a short time years ago... GENIUS is all I can say.
Chicken Run, Wonderful movie!
This is actually one of the first things I remember seeing on a TV screen. Probably around '92-'93 and on video cassette. I could still remember the upcoming chuckles (turtle heading the beach ball, bird pulling the others beak), would have my little toddler ass in hysterics.
I'm always impressed by the quality of this.
Absolutely wonderful. I first saw this film in 1990 and watched it and over. And I think the Brazilian puma is my favorite, and when I learned that the voices were all of regular people, and the puma's was of a Brazilian student, the film meant even more to me.
I fully agree with the Jaguar and the Ape. Small habitats suck regardless of concierge zoo service.
ICYDK, The Jaguar also makes a cameo in The Wrong Trousers as a museum exhibit. I recently watched Wrong Trousers after watching a bit of this, and I instantly recognised the Jaguar when I saw him.
The polar bear family are now in therapy
Such an entrancing, clever film. Really one of Park's best works.
OMG - I saw the series when I lived in Italy in 2005, but the title in Italian never translated to something I could find. Just on Aardman's site and saw the Creature Discomforts, same format, and finally found this! Yeah! Can't wait to watch them all in English :)
I have been trying to find this since 1999. I am so happy to have randomly stumbled upon it!
