Director’s Chair: Nick Park, Henry Selick and Jan Svankmajer

by Tony Cogan · September 25, 2016 · Director's Chair · 1 Comment

Hello everyone, once again it’s time to reveal your thoughts on the directors I’ve chosen for this month. This month, I decided to do a triple selection of directors, all involved in stop motion, to celebrate the release of Kubo and the Two Strings, those directors all representing different styles of stop motion, the directors being Nick Park, Henry Selick and Jan Svankmajer. Didn’t get many responses for this month but I believe in quality rather than quantity so, without further ado, here are your thoughts on those directors.NICK PARK
