Sunny Side Up


This is an in-house stop motion project by Rocket Science Animation, a studio based in Gurguan, India.  Perhaps if you are afraid of flying you should think twice about watching this!  The story is about Mr Bhurjee, a very nervous passenger, who finally meets his maker rather unexpectedly.

Stop motion is incredibly difficult to get right so hats off to the animators at RSA for pulling this off – eggs are notoriously wobbly objects after all!  One thing though.  I realize that Mr Bhurjee is supposed to be an Indian egg, as it were – but did anyone else notice a distinct resemblance to a certain German dictator who joined the great omelet in the sky in 1945?
