No eggs? | 0:01:30 | 0:01:31 | |
This would never have happened when I was a kid. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:35 | |
We had fresh ones laid by the chickens. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
My favourite was Mr Chicken. I loved that pet. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:42 | |

Oh, hey, Gavin, what you got? | 0:01:59 | 0:02:00 | |
Your magazine, Chicken Weekly. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:02 | |
It must have been delivered to me by mistake. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:04 | |
You've not got my magazine at all, have you? | 0:02:04 | 0:02:07 | |
Unfortunately, Annoying Best Mates Monthly hasn't been delivered yet. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:11 | |
Ha-ha, good one. Cheers, Rick, see you later. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:13 | |
See you later. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:14 | |
You know what, this has given me an idea. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
I'm going to paint a picture of my beloved | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
Mr Chicken in the style made popular by Picasso, cubism. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:23 | |
Using this egg box to give it a great 3D quality, I'm just | 0:02:23 | 0:02:27 | |
going to wing it. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:28 | |
I'm going to start by drawing myself a line that I can follow to paint. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:35 | |
It's quite difficult to draw on an egg box | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
so make sure you take your time. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:40 | |
Right, it's looking pretty good. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:41 | |
I'm just going to draw the cone now. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
That's the red, wobbly bit. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:44 | |
That's the kind of thing you learn from Chicken Weekly. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
There we go. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:50 | |
Good start. Now I can start painting. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
Put a bit of paper down first so that I don't ruin the kitchen top. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
I've got some pre-mix paint here. | 0:02:57 | 0:02:59 | |
I'm going to use this to paint the main body of the chicken. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:03 | |
Hello. I am Pablo Picasso. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:08 | |
Hey, Picasso. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:09 | |
I helped invent cubism, which means showing things | 0:03:09 | 0:03:13 | |
painted from many different angles at once. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:15 | |
I made around 50,000 sculptures, drawings and paintings. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:19 | |
Here's one now. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:20 | |
Oi, Picasso, pipe down. I'm trying to paint Mr Chicken. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:26 | |
You are not the only one who has a monopoly on animals, you know. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:29 | |
I owned a pet monkey, a goat, a turtle, | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
packs of dogs and cats and a wise, old owl. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
Wise words, Picasso. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:36 | |
You'll find you need to use more paint than normal for a picture | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
this size, because you're covering a lot more surface | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
area. You've got to go in these crevices, on top of these peaks. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:48 | |
And to do the feet, I think I need to change brushes. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:54 | |
'I need a smaller brush to do more detail.' | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
Now the next stage is waiting for that to dry. | 0:03:57 | 0:03:59 | |
But I wait for nothing cos I'm the Art Ninja. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
There we go, nice and dry. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:04 | |
Now I'm going to do a nice blue sky behind him, and a nice green floor. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:08 | |
'Adding white to the blue to give me different tones.' | 0:04:08 | 0:04:11 | |
I think the sky's all done. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:18 | |
So I'm going to start doing some grass. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
So get the green out. Going to add a bit of yellow to brighten it up. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
And then some white to get a good shade of green. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:28 | |
I'm going to take the green up to where it meets the blue | 0:04:32 | 0:04:35 | |
and dab to try and get the representation of blades of grass. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:39 | |
Very important bit of the chicken now, the comb. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:44 | |
So I'm going to get out some red. Don't need too much of this, | 0:04:44 | 0:04:48 | |
just a little bit. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:49 | |
Don't know why it's called a comb, cos you can't comb it. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
Right. That's the foundations of all the colours done. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
Now I'm going to start putting in some detail. | 0:04:57 | 0:05:00 | |
Get some of this brown out | 0:05:00 | 0:05:02 | |
and do the back end of the feathers where it's a bit darker. | 0:05:02 | 0:05:04 | |
You can go back and use the original colour...just to help | 0:05:06 | 0:05:09 | |
some of these darker bits blend in. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:11 | |
Now, I'm just dabbing here to get the speckled effect of the feathers. | 0:05:13 | 0:05:16 | |
And right now my chicken can't see. So I'm going to do an eye. | 0:05:21 | 0:05:25 | |
Add a little bit of white. There's a highlight in the eye. | 0:05:27 | 0:05:31 | |
OK. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:32 | |
Wow! Look at that! | 0:05:33 | 0:05:36 | |
I think that's brilliant. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:38 | |
So from head on, it just looks like a normal picture. And then | 0:05:38 | 0:05:41 | |
when I turn it, all the peaks and troughs distort the picture, | 0:05:41 | 0:05:45 | |
giving it that Cubism effect. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:47 | |
You don't have to paint a chicken, you could paint whatever you want. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:50 | |
For instance, you could do a self-portrait. Freaky, hey? | 0:05:50 | 0:05:54 | |
When you lean it forward, it smiles. When you lean it backward, | 0:05:54 | 0:05:59 | |
little sad face. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:00 | |

CLUCKING | 0:06:08 | 0:06:10 | |
'Now I need some breakfast.' | 0:06:10 | 0:06:11 | |
That was a productive breakfast time. Now it's animation time. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:17 | |
This is my friend Andre. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:27 | |
You all right? | 0:06:27 | 0:06:28 | |
This is his skate park, and he is | 0:06:28 | 0:06:30 | |
-going to be my skateboard for the day. -Wahoo! | 0:06:30 | 0:06:33 | |
You can make an awesome human skateboard animation in just | 0:06:33 | 0:06:35 | |
three ninja moves. | 0:06:35 | 0:06:37 | |
'Ninja move number one.' | 0:06:38 | 0:06:40 | |
Find yourself a willing friend. | 0:06:40 | 0:06:42 | |
HE LAUGHS | 0:06:43 | 0:06:44 | |
Now find a friend to help you shoot the animation. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:48 | |
All right, let's do this. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:49 | |
'Ninja move number two. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:56 | |
'Set up your animation and get ready to shoot.' | 0:06:56 | 0:06:58 | |
OK, I'm going to be doing a skateboarding trick using | 0:06:58 | 0:07:01 | |
Andre as a skateboard. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:02 | |
Rich is going to be taking pictures on the camera | 0:07:02 | 0:07:04 | |
cos I can't do both. He's going to be using a fish-eye lens | 0:07:04 | 0:07:06 | |
so he can take super-wide shots. You ready, Andre? | 0:07:06 | 0:07:09 | |
I'm ready! | 0:07:09 | 0:07:10 | |
Are you happy and comfortable, Andre? | 0:07:13 | 0:07:15 | |
-Yes. -Are you ready to shred? -Let's do this! | 0:07:15 | 0:07:17 | |
HE GRUNTS | 0:07:17 | 0:07:20 | |
We're going to move Andre along each time we take a picture or a frame. | 0:07:20 | 0:07:23 | |
This way, when all the frames are played together, it'll | 0:07:25 | 0:07:28 | |
look like I'm skating on Andre. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:30 | |
Now this kind of thing isn't very difficult so I want to work out | 0:07:30 | 0:07:34 | |
a cool skateboarding ninja stunt that we can do instead. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:37 | |
'Ninja move number three. Plan out your skateboarding stunt.' | 0:07:37 | 0:07:41 | |
To create a cool skateboarding stunt, | 0:07:41 | 0:07:43 | |
well, it will involve Andre flying through the air. | 0:07:43 | 0:07:45 | |
Can you fly through the air, buddy? | 0:07:45 | 0:07:47 | |
I don't think so. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:49 | |
To do this we're going to be using chromakey - or green screen - to | 0:07:49 | 0:07:53 | |
hold us in the air while the frame is recorded. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:56 | |
So now we know what we're going to do, we need to get on with | 0:07:58 | 0:08:00 | |
it. Cut to time-lapse. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:02 | |
'Remember, this kind of animation can be tricky so you might need | 0:08:02 | 0:08:05 | |
'some extra help and also...' | 0:08:05 | 0:08:07 | |
Animation's thirsty work so make sure you take plenty of breaks. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:11 | |
CLINK | 0:08:11 | 0:08:13 | |
OK, we've got all the shots so it's time to do some editing. | 0:08:16 | 0:08:20 | |
'There's loads of free editing apps, like I'm using, available | 0:08:20 | 0:08:23 | |
'online for your PC or tablet.' | 0:08:23 | 0:08:25 | |
OK, so I've taken out the green boxes, I've added some sound | 0:08:27 | 0:08:30 | |
effects, and I think it's time to take a look at our mini masterpiece. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:34 | |
-You ready, Andre? -Let's do it. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:36 | |
Oh, it looks amazing. | 0:08:39 | 0:08:41 | |
Look at my legs! | 0:08:44 | 0:08:45 | |
BOTH: Oh! | 0:08:48 | 0:08:49 | |
BOTH: Oh! | 0:08:50 | 0:08:52 | |
BOTH: Oh! | 0:08:52 | 0:08:53 | |
Kick was so rad. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:55 | |
-That is good. -It is good. | 0:08:56 | 0:08:58 | |
Well, seeing as I'm here, I might as well set up the ninja board and go | 0:08:59 | 0:09:03 | |
for a shred. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:04 | |
'So next time you're feeling bored, try turning your mate into one. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:17 | |
'Gnarly to the max!' | 0:09:17 | 0:09:19 | |
Here in Bristol, we have a hot-air balloon festival, | 0:09:28 | 0:09:30 | |
and I was thinking it'll be a good place to search for Mr Chicken. | 0:09:30 | 0:09:33 | |
CLUCKING | 0:09:33 | 0:09:35 | |
It also gave me an idea for an awesome balloon picture. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:39 | |
'The Art Ninja air balloon cell picture with awesome animation.' | 0:09:41 | 0:09:46 | |
What I'm going to use is just a sheet of cardboard. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:49 | |
And I'm going to draw a border around it | 0:09:49 | 0:09:52 | |
which is about the width of a ruler. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:54 | |
Right, I'm going to cut out the middle bit so I'm left with a frame. | 0:09:58 | 0:10:02 | |
'Be careful with scissors, they can be sharp.' | 0:10:02 | 0:10:05 | |
You're going to need two of these so I'll just ninja myself another one. | 0:10:06 | 0:10:10 | |
Now, grab yourself some clingfilm and a glue stick | 0:10:10 | 0:10:13 | |
and give the frame a generous portion of glue. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:17 | |
Looks like enough. OK, now the tricky bit. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:24 | |
Roll it out, over your frame. | 0:10:24 | 0:10:27 | |
OK, now cos we used loads of glue, it means we can stretch it | 0:10:30 | 0:10:34 | |
out across this frame without it suddenly sticking... | 0:10:34 | 0:10:39 | |
completely. | 0:10:39 | 0:10:41 | |
Look at that, nice and taut. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:42 | |
Now we want to put another good portion of glue on the other | 0:10:44 | 0:10:47 | |
side of the frame. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:48 | |
Now sandwich the clingfilm between the two frames. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:54 | |
Like that. | 0:10:54 | 0:10:56 | |
Stretch it around like this, just to make sure it's nice | 0:10:56 | 0:10:58 | |
and tight. And there we are, your first frame... | 0:10:58 | 0:11:01 | |
..ready for drawing on. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:04 | |
Now this isn't a canvas, this is a cell. | 0:11:04 | 0:11:06 | |
It's what animators use to draw on. | 0:11:06 | 0:11:08 | |
Rather than drawing straight onto it, I've drawn a little | 0:11:08 | 0:11:11 | |
image first as a guide so that I don't muck it up | 0:11:11 | 0:11:14 | |
and have to make my cell again. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:16 | |
'Now I'm just going to trace the guide onto the cell. | 0:11:17 | 0:11:20 | |
'I'm using a permanent marker to do this.' | 0:11:20 | 0:11:23 | |
Lot of seagulls in Bristol. | 0:11:28 | 0:11:30 | |
Great. Now I can paint it. | 0:11:30 | 0:11:33 | |
'I'm putting yellow paper under the cell so that when I paint it, | 0:11:33 | 0:11:36 | |
'I can see it more easily.' | 0:11:36 | 0:11:38 | |
There we are. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:39 | |
What I'm using here is acrylic paint, | 0:11:41 | 0:11:44 | |
which is pretty happy to | 0:11:44 | 0:11:46 | |
go on anything. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
The great thing about this, | 0:11:51 | 0:11:52 | |
using cells, is that you could layer up a picture. | 0:11:52 | 0:11:55 | |
You create a foreground and background, | 0:11:55 | 0:11:57 | |
and if you were animating, | 0:11:57 | 0:11:59 | |
it meant you didn't have to redraw everything over and over again. | 0:11:59 | 0:12:02 | |
So what I've done here is drawn a lovely foreground. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:06 | |
So this is a box made up of two of the frames, one at the front | 0:12:06 | 0:12:10 | |
and one at the back, and I wrapped a piece of cardboard | 0:12:10 | 0:12:13 | |
around three of the sides but left one of them | 0:12:13 | 0:12:15 | |
open, cos that's where we're going to slide in our other cells. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:18 | |
And if we just slide...my frame inside... | 0:12:20 | 0:12:23 | |
Look at that! | 0:12:25 | 0:12:26 | |
So, hot-air balloon over the lovely, rolling hills. | 0:12:26 | 0:12:28 | |
But it feels like it's in a bit of a void, | 0:12:28 | 0:12:30 | |
it needs some background. | 0:12:30 | 0:12:33 | |
And I've painted some white | 0:12:33 | 0:12:35 | |
clouds on a blue piece of paper, | 0:12:35 | 0:12:37 | |
and I've put sticky tacks on the corner. | 0:12:37 | 0:12:40 | |
So when I stick it to the back, if I ever want to change the weather, | 0:12:40 | 0:12:44 | |
I can. | 0:12:44 | 0:12:45 | |
And there we are. Look how beautiful that is. It gives it real depth. | 0:12:45 | 0:12:50 | |
Now this piece of art has a trick up its sleeve. | 0:12:50 | 0:12:53 | |
So I've drawn some other frames, | 0:12:53 | 0:12:55 | |
and we can see here how they work, sort of one after the other. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:58 | |
So I'm just going to grab my tablet. | 0:12:58 | 0:13:01 | |
I've got on it some animation software. | 0:13:01 | 0:13:03 | |
Right, so my first frame's in place. I'll just go for a frame. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:07 | |
Nice. Swap out my frame to the next one. | 0:13:08 | 0:13:12 | |
So on each of these frames the bird, | 0:13:16 | 0:13:19 | |
he's moved just a tiny amount towards the balloon. | 0:13:19 | 0:13:22 | |
Ooh, now he's bumped into it. | 0:13:24 | 0:13:26 | |
Cool. Let's have a little look at it. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:31 | |
'The air balloon cell picture. Why don't you try it yourself?' | 0:13:32 | 0:13:36 | |
I wish I could fly up high in the sky. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:40 | |
Looking down like a bird. Oh, I can imagine it now. | 0:13:40 | 0:13:43 | |
PHONE RINGS | 0:13:44 | 0:13:48 | |
BEEP | 0:13:48 | 0:13:49 | |
'Hi, Ricky, it's your mum. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:51 | |
'Bet you can't get to the phone | 0:13:51 | 0:13:52 | |

'bites for tea, if you want to come round.' | 0:13:58 | 0:14:01 | |
A bit insensitive. I was just thinking of Mr Chicken. | 0:14:01 | 0:14:04 | |
'Also, I wanted to say what else we've got coming up. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:07 | |
'You'll be making a superhero with a straw, learning how to make | 0:14:07 | 0:14:10 | |
'jelly worms...and you'll be forming a collage with your biggest fan. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:15 | |
'Bye!' | 0:14:15 | 0:14:17 | |
Wow. I better get on with it. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:19 | |
This art won't make itself. | 0:14:19 | 0:14:21 | |
What to do first? | 0:14:21 | 0:14:23 | |
-Ricky, Ricky. -Ricky, Ricky. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:25 | |
What can I do for you, guys? | 0:14:25 | 0:14:26 | |
BOTH: Can you make something with a bike pump? | 0:14:26 | 0:14:29 | |
Um, not that today. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:31 | |
Oh. | 0:14:31 | 0:14:32 | |
-ALL: -Ricky, what can you make with this foot stool? | 0:14:32 | 0:14:36 | |
A footstool? Have to put my foot down on that one. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:39 | |
Ricky, what can you do with these? | 0:14:39 | 0:14:43 | |
How about this guy? Yeah, I pick you. | 0:14:43 | 0:14:46 | |
Yes! Yes! | 0:14:46 | 0:14:49 | |
-What's your name, buddy? -I'm Cory. | 0:14:49 | 0:14:51 | |
-Hi, Cory. Where are you from? -I'm from Cardiff. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:54 | |
Cardiff, yeah. So what have you got for me today? | 0:14:54 | 0:14:57 | |
-Can you make some art with straws? -Make something with straws? | 0:14:57 | 0:15:00 | |
I can do better than that. I can make you a cartoon superhero. | 0:15:00 | 0:15:03 | |
I'll just get my bits. | 0:15:03 | 0:15:05 | |
Here we go. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:06 | |
Got myself some Sellotape, some paper, some card, | 0:15:06 | 0:15:10 | |
coloured pens and scissors and, of course, special straw. | 0:15:10 | 0:15:15 | |
What I'm going to do to begin with is I'm going to roll the paper | 0:15:15 | 0:15:18 | |
round the end of the straw just to get a tube. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:23 | |
There we go. Going to sticky-tape that together. | 0:15:23 | 0:15:26 | |
There we are. | 0:15:29 | 0:15:30 | |
Now I'm going to fold over the end and then take that down. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:33 | |
Put that to one side. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:41 | |
Now I'm going to draw myself a superhero. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:43 | |
-What superpowers would you have, Cory? -Super strength. | 0:15:43 | 0:15:47 | |
Super strength? Nice one. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:50 | |
Good choice. | 0:15:50 | 0:15:51 | |
This is my superhero. I'd love to see your design | 0:15:52 | 0:15:55 | |
for super strongman. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
Why do superheroes always wear their pants over their trousers? | 0:15:57 | 0:16:00 | |
I think it's just the fashion. | 0:16:00 | 0:16:02 | |
The legs, there we go, and the cape. | 0:16:02 | 0:16:07 | |
And I'm going to put a little emblem in the middle. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:10 | |
I think he's going to be called Rad Man. | 0:16:10 | 0:16:12 | |
Six-pack. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:18 | |
Red, blue and yellow are good hero colours, aren't they? | 0:16:18 | 0:16:21 | |
Let's get colouring him in. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:22 | |
When I was younger, I had to put up with cheaper superheroes | 0:16:24 | 0:16:28 | |
such as Budget Boy. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:31 | |
His special power was getting money off things. | 0:16:31 | 0:16:34 | |
But don't worry, this superhero isn't going to be cheap, | 0:16:36 | 0:16:40 | |
he's going to be top of the range. | 0:16:40 | 0:16:42 | |
What colour should his bottoms be? | 0:16:42 | 0:16:44 | |
-Um, blue. -Sounds good. | 0:16:44 | 0:16:47 | |
There we go. What colour should his pants be? | 0:16:52 | 0:16:55 | |
Um, black maybe? | 0:16:57 | 0:16:59 | |
Black, yeah. Black pants. | 0:16:59 | 0:17:00 | |
When you have a go, you can mix up the colours. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:06 | |
-Shall I give him a yellow cape? -Yes. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:08 | |
Yeah. Here, we can see him coming then. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:10 | |
And then I'm going to do the Rad bit here. | 0:17:13 | 0:17:16 | |
Make some yellow booties. | 0:17:18 | 0:17:20 | |
And I think I'm going to do his face pink, | 0:17:21 | 0:17:24 | |
cos I'd be pretty embarrassed if I had my pants on over my trousers. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:28 | |
OK, I'm going to cut that out. | 0:17:30 | 0:17:31 | |
Now his legs. | 0:17:34 | 0:17:37 | |
Go round here and his hands and his head. | 0:17:37 | 0:17:39 | |
There we go. | 0:17:39 | 0:17:41 | |
Now I'm going to stick my little tube that I made to his back. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:45 | |
More sticky tape. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:47 | |
There we go. Put the straw in. | 0:17:50 | 0:17:54 | |
-Right. Do you want to see him? -Yep. | 0:17:54 | 0:17:57 | |
-What do you think? -That's awesome! | 0:17:59 | 0:18:02 | |
He looks good, doesn't he? And then check this out. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:07 | |
-Wow. -What do you think of it? | 0:18:14 | 0:18:16 | |
It's super! I'll give it 110%. | 0:18:16 | 0:18:20 | |
110%? That's not even possible. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:23 | |
I reckon you could make your hero even more super. | 0:18:23 | 0:18:26 | |
-Yep. -Thanks very much, Cory. Have a good day, mate. Bye-bye. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:30 | |
Bye, Ricky. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:32 | |
Here's a quick art tip. How to add speech to your cartoon doodles. | 0:18:32 | 0:18:37 | |
So, the first stage is working out what your characters | 0:18:37 | 0:18:39 | |
are going to say and then leaving space, | 0:18:39 | 0:18:41 | |
so you can write it in afterwards. So I've drawn these guys here. | 0:18:41 | 0:18:44 | |
Little one of me getting my ninja on and I've left space at the top | 0:18:44 | 0:18:47 | |
and down here where I want to put it. | 0:18:47 | 0:18:49 | |
When I come to actually write the text, I'm going to do | 0:18:49 | 0:18:51 | |
it in capitals, so it's nice and bold and easy to read. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:55 | |
Time to get my ninja on. | 0:18:56 | 0:18:57 | |
And over here I'm going to write "art ninja". | 0:18:58 | 0:19:01 | |
The next stage is to draw a circle round your text | 0:19:01 | 0:19:04 | |
and that just borders it off nicely | 0:19:04 | 0:19:06 | |
and then a little tail to indicate who's speaking. | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
Now, on this one over here, I'm shouting, | 0:19:09 | 0:19:11 | |
so I'm going to use a zigzag border to give it more energy. | 0:19:11 | 0:19:14 | |
And finally, you could enhance your drawings by using text to | 0:19:17 | 0:19:20 | |
create sound effects. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:22 | |
So I'm going to put a nice big Ka-pow up here. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:24 | |
In this one, I'm using bubble writing. There we go. | 0:19:26 | 0:19:29 | |
There's a quick art tip. | 0:19:32 | 0:19:33 | |
Hey, you there. Birds fly in the sky. But why? | 0:19:47 | 0:19:52 | |
Because they eat worms from the earth. | 0:19:54 | 0:19:56 | |
Look at this guy. Check out how orange his face is. | 0:19:56 | 0:20:00 | |
-But you can't eat worms. Can you? -Nope. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:04 | |
Well, now you can, with new jelly worms. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:10 | |
Here's how you make them. You need a jug. | 0:20:10 | 0:20:13 | |
Some red jelly. | 0:20:15 | 0:20:17 | |
Some orange jelly. | 0:20:17 | 0:20:20 | |
And some gelatine. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:23 | |
Then add hot water. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:27 | |
Be careful or get an adult to help. | 0:20:28 | 0:20:30 | |
Now, add cold water. Don't drink it. | 0:20:33 | 0:20:36 | |
You need cream. Smells good. | 0:20:40 | 0:20:44 | |
In it goes, just a bit. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:46 | |
Use a spoon to stir your mixture. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:48 | |
This should melt the jelly until it looks like this. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:53 | |
Next get some bendy straws. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:57 | |
Making sure the bendy end faces downwards, put them in a tall glass. | 0:20:58 | 0:21:03 | |
Pour the mixture into the glass around the straws, | 0:21:05 | 0:21:09 | |
nearly to the top. | 0:21:09 | 0:21:10 | |
Mmm. Spread the straws out. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:16 | |
Then leave them in the fridge for seven hours to allow the | 0:21:17 | 0:21:21 | |
mixture to set. | 0:21:21 | 0:21:22 | |
Grab a plate, remove a straw. | 0:21:23 | 0:21:26 | |
Give it a squeeze like this and hey presto, a jelly worm. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:33 | |
Oh. | 0:21:33 | 0:21:35 | |
All you need do now is squeeze it onto a plate and repeat for | 0:21:35 | 0:21:39 | |
as many straws as you have filled. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:41 | |
Jelly worms. Stored in a fridge near you. | 0:21:49 | 0:21:53 | |
Mm, might have to try some of those. | 0:21:53 | 0:21:55 | |
Oh, this interview with Beaktoria Peckham's really cracking me up. | 0:21:58 | 0:22:03 | |
Do you know, I'd like to think that somewhere, right now, | 0:22:03 | 0:22:06 | |
Mr Chicken is reading this too. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:08 | |
Oh, I'd love to find him. | 0:22:10 | 0:22:13 | |
I've got an idea. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:17 | |
Hi, Michelle, I've got a plan. | 0:22:17 | 0:22:19 | |
I'm going to fly and meet Mr Chicken. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:21 | |
No, no, no, don't hang up, I'm serious. | 0:22:21 | 0:22:24 | |
Can you meet me at the warehouse? And bring a big fan. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:27 | |
Ninja skills. Hey, Mich. Did you bring that fan I asked you for? | 0:22:38 | 0:22:42 | |
I'm your fan, Ricky. Go, Ricky! | 0:22:42 | 0:22:45 | |
-Give me an R, give me an I... -Michelle, everybody. | 0:22:45 | 0:22:48 | |
Give me a C, give me a K. Go, Rick... | 0:22:48 | 0:22:51 | |
Can I just interrupt you there? What I need is wind. | 0:22:51 | 0:22:54 | |
Oh, you've got more than enough of that already, mate. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:57 | |
All right. Well, what's that thing for then? | 0:22:57 | 0:22:59 | |
-Oh, the fan, fan, you should have said. -That's our fan, fan. | 0:22:59 | 0:23:02 | |
The fan, fan. | 0:23:02 | 0:23:03 | |
What I want to do is make a collage by blowing things through that fan. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:07 | |
If only we had some feathers. | 0:23:07 | 0:23:09 | |
If only we had some pillows. | 0:23:09 | 0:23:11 | |
-En garde. -Are you being serious? -You bet I am. | 0:23:13 | 0:23:18 | |
I think we've got enough feathers now, so let's get our ninja on. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:28 | |
-Art ninja. -Art ninja. | 0:23:33 | 0:23:36 | |
Strike a pose. | 0:23:36 | 0:23:38 | |
Right, so what we're going to be doing is making a massive | 0:23:41 | 0:23:44 | |
collage on this board here | 0:23:44 | 0:23:46 | |
and using this fan to blow all of our cool stuff against it. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:50 | |
But first, we need a guide, so we know where we're aiming for, | 0:23:50 | 0:23:53 | |
and we're going to do that by using some charcoal. | 0:23:53 | 0:23:55 | |
-Let's do some art. -Let's do it. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:57 | |
Are you going to give me any sort of clue as to what this is? | 0:23:59 | 0:24:01 | |
It has something to do with feathers. | 0:24:01 | 0:24:05 | |
OK. Right, some form of bird. | 0:24:05 | 0:24:07 | |
Or maybe just a really big pillow. | 0:24:07 | 0:24:09 | |
Now it's time for us to start gluing. | 0:24:11 | 0:24:14 | |
Smooth. | 0:24:15 | 0:24:17 | |
We first need to start gluing here, along here | 0:24:17 | 0:24:21 | |
and around the belly here. | 0:24:21 | 0:24:24 | |
OK. Why these sections? | 0:24:24 | 0:24:25 | |
This is going to be all the same colour, | 0:24:25 | 0:24:27 | |
so we need to do those bits first. | 0:24:27 | 0:24:29 | |
I see. OK. | 0:24:29 | 0:24:32 | |
Right, and it's all nice and sticky. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:35 | |
It's time to start playing with my number one fan. | 0:24:35 | 0:24:37 | |
-This is the exciting bit, isn't it? -It is. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:40 | |
OK, so what colour are we going for? | 0:24:40 | 0:24:41 | |
We're going for this nice dark blue colour. | 0:24:41 | 0:24:44 | |
Michelle, start the fans, please. | 0:24:44 | 0:24:46 | |
Yes! | 0:24:46 | 0:24:49 | |
More, more, more. Whoa! | 0:24:49 | 0:24:52 | |
Stop it. Turn it off. | 0:24:53 | 0:24:55 | |
Wow! Right, let's start gluing this bit and this bit. | 0:24:58 | 0:25:02 | |
-This is really fun. -It's a blast. | 0:25:02 | 0:25:05 | |
-Give me light blue, Michelle. -Coming up. -Fire up the fan. | 0:25:05 | 0:25:08 | |
Yeah! | 0:25:12 | 0:25:13 | |
This lower bit's going to be red. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:17 | |
Whoa! | 0:25:21 | 0:25:23 | |
OK, Michelle, let's go for a different texture this time. | 0:25:23 | 0:25:25 | |
-Sawdust. -Ooh, cool. -Fan, fan, fan. | 0:25:25 | 0:25:29 | |
-Whoa! Oh, yes. It looks brilliant. -That's ace. | 0:25:36 | 0:25:40 | |
We're not done yet. | 0:25:40 | 0:25:41 | |
We need more feathers and some plastic balls. | 0:25:41 | 0:25:44 | |
Fan! | 0:25:44 | 0:25:46 | |
-Yeah! -Whoa! -Whoa! | 0:25:47 | 0:25:54 | |
-Oh, it looks brilliant. -It really does. | 0:25:56 | 0:25:59 | |
It just needs one final finishing touch. A little bit of texture... | 0:25:59 | 0:26:04 | |
..on its beak. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:06 | |
Perfect. | 0:26:09 | 0:26:11 | |
That looks awesome. | 0:26:17 | 0:26:20 | |
-Not bad for a wing-it job. -Oh, good one. | 0:26:20 | 0:26:22 | |
-Ricky, what are you doing? -I must find Mr Chicken. | 0:26:24 | 0:26:28 | |
Mr Chicken? | 0:26:30 | 0:26:32 | |
I'm coming, Mr Chicken. Mr Chicken? | 0:26:38 | 0:26:42 | |
You just wait there, Mr Chicken, I'm coming for you. | 0:26:44 | 0:26:47 | |
I kind of flew around the world. | 0:26:57 | 0:26:59 | |
Well, that's what I'm going to lead my mates to believe | 0:26:59 | 0:27:02 | |
with this e-mail. | 0:27:02 | 0:27:04 | |
But still no Mr Chicken. | 0:27:04 | 0:27:07 | |
Anyway, it's time for bed. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:10 | |
Well, I may not have found my old pal, but today has taught me | 0:27:10 | 0:27:16 | |
a valuable Art Ninja lesson. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:18 | |
If you want to fly like a bird man you'll need glue, | 0:27:18 | 0:27:22 | |
sand and a giant fan. | 0:27:22 | 0:27:24 | |
PHONE BUZZES | 0:27:24 | 0:27:26 | |
Who could that be at this time of night? | 0:27:26 | 0:27:28 | |
It's an e-postcard from Mr Chicken. | 0:27:29 | 0:27:32 | |
Hey, it's turned out all right. | 0:27:32 | 0:27:33 | |
He's on holiday in Mississippi, Tennessee | 0:27:33 | 0:27:35 | |
and Kentucky, the chicken's favourite states. | 0:27:35 | 0:27:38 | |
Hang on? Kentucky? | 0:27:44 | 0:27:47 | |
AH! | 0:27:49 | 0:27:52 | |
