0:00:02 > 0:00:04Nine Minute Ninja!
0:00:04 > 0:00:06HE YAWNS It's a new day.
0:00:07 > 0:00:09I better get my ninja on.
0:00:09 > 0:00:11And my clothes!
0:00:28 > 0:00:31With ninja skills come giant responsibilities,
0:00:31 > 0:00:33and sometimes, other giant stuff, too.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37I think I'll have some porridge.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40Oaty goodness!
0:00:40 > 0:00:41Aw, what?
0:00:43 > 0:00:45Who's been eating my porridge?
0:00:47 > 0:00:48What is that noise?
0:00:53 > 0:00:54No-one's there. That's weird.
0:00:58 > 0:01:00HE GROANS
0:01:00 > 0:01:01This is a whopper!
0:01:08 > 0:01:10It's big enough to be something...Jurassic.
0:01:13 > 0:01:14But that's just crazy, right?
0:01:16 > 0:01:20I've had so many dreams recently, I feel a bit tired.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23I need a hand. Or maybe I need...
0:01:24 > 0:01:26the Art Ninja giant hand!
0:01:27 > 0:01:29So, I've got a nice big piece of card.
0:01:30 > 0:01:34And using my hand as a guide, I'm going to draw a massive hand.
0:01:39 > 0:01:40Lovely.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42We cut that out.
0:01:46 > 0:01:48It's looking pretty good.
0:01:48 > 0:01:50I need a strap so I can wear the hand.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52So, I'm going to make that by rolling up
0:01:52 > 0:01:54a piece of corrugated cardboard.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56There we go.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58Going to hold that together with some masking tape.
0:02:01 > 0:02:02And do another one.
0:02:03 > 0:02:05It's looking pretty good.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07Now I need to pad it out to look like a real hand.
0:02:07 > 0:02:11So, I'm going to roll up some newspaper into sausage shapes
0:02:11 > 0:02:12and wrap them round my fingers.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14Go round like that.
0:02:14 > 0:02:18I'm using masking tape, just because paper mache sticks to it better.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20Sticky tape has kind of got a glossy coating,
0:02:20 > 0:02:22and the glue doesn't take to it very well.
0:02:25 > 0:02:26Now I'm doing the palm.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29Have a look at your own hand and see where the muscle's built up.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32So, I've got this big pad here for my thumb. There.
0:02:40 > 0:02:43And now I'm going to wrap some newspaper around the wrist.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47I'm wrapping whole pages over like this, just to smooth it off a bit.
0:02:47 > 0:02:51Right. It's all held down nice and tight. Ready for paper mache.
0:02:51 > 0:02:52So, I've got some mix here.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Two parts glue, one part water, and some little squares of newspaper.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58I'm going to give it a good, generous covering.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03You need to do maybe two or three layers of this, and that's
0:03:03 > 0:03:07just to stiffen it up and make it nice and strong, ready for painting.
0:03:12 > 0:03:14It's messy, but so relaxing to do.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21Right, I'm going to add a bit of detail to the front now.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24And that is going to be some nails. So, I've cut out some card.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31I'm not going to paper mache over the tip of the nails,
0:03:31 > 0:03:33so the nails still have a nice sharpness to them.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37And just one layer should do it here.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Leave this to dry.
0:03:43 > 0:03:44Nailed it!
0:03:45 > 0:03:47That's ready for painting. My flesh colour.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50You can mix up a colour that matches your skin.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02Great. I need that to dry and to add some detail.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04So, I'm going to use some ninja skills.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08Yeah, check that out!
0:04:08 > 0:04:09Now I've added some detail here,
0:04:09 > 0:04:12with some darkening of the knuckles to give them definition,
0:04:12 > 0:04:15and I've painted the nails to make them look more realistic.
0:04:15 > 0:04:17Now for some finishing touches.
0:04:17 > 0:04:20How about a thumb ring made from gold card?
0:04:22 > 0:04:25And a nice friendship band made from plaited paper.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27Well, I think that deserves a big hand!
0:04:27 > 0:04:28APPLAUSE
0:04:28 > 0:04:29Thank you!
0:04:35 > 0:04:39You don't have to make a giant hand. How about...
0:04:39 > 0:04:42A big hairy foot with colourful nails?
0:04:42 > 0:04:44Or a monster claw.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46MONSTER ROARS
0:04:46 > 0:04:47It gets a thumbs up from me.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55Today for the animation, I've got a really, really big idea.
0:04:59 > 0:05:00Oh, Rich, no!
0:05:00 > 0:05:02SQUASHING NOISE
0:05:02 > 0:05:03ART NINJA GROANS
0:05:03 > 0:05:04That was close!
0:05:05 > 0:05:07Don't worry, mate, it's just an animation,
0:05:07 > 0:05:09and it's all a matter of perspective.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13So, to make this animation, you'll need...
0:05:13 > 0:05:15A large open space, some friends,
0:05:15 > 0:05:18and a tablet or smartphone with animation app.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21And you can put it together in just three Ninja Moves.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23Ninja Move number one.
0:05:23 > 0:05:26You want somebody to be big in frame, and somebody to be small.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28So, they need to be different distances away from the tablet.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31Do a couple of experiments to get the distance just right,
0:05:31 > 0:05:35and top tip, keep the tablet as low to the floor as possible.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38Ninja Move number two. It's time to start shooting.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41Now, the person behind the camera has a really important role,
0:05:41 > 0:05:44cos they have to direct both actors, and one is miles away.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48And the trick here is to make it look like the two are interacting.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56Ninja Move number three.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58Oh. Well, there is no Ninja Move number three.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00We finished the animation ages ago.
0:06:02 > 0:06:03Let's play it.
0:06:03 > 0:06:04FOOTSTEPS THUD
0:06:04 > 0:06:05Oh, Rich, no!
0:06:05 > 0:06:07SQUASHING NOISE
0:06:07 > 0:06:08ART NINJA GRUNTS
0:06:08 > 0:06:11- What do you think, Rich? - Gnarly to the max.
0:06:12 > 0:06:13What do you think, Ella?
0:06:18 > 0:06:20Here's a quick art tip. How to draw a pirate ship.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23So, I'm going to start with the waterline,
0:06:23 > 0:06:26and that's just joined up curves.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28Now I'm going to draw the hull of the ship.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30So, it's going to have a curve at the front,
0:06:30 > 0:06:34a rectangle that juts out, that's going to be the bow.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Down here to make the deck.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38And then a rectangle that sticks out the back,
0:06:38 > 0:06:40and a similar curve for the stern.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42Now you need some cannon holes,
0:06:42 > 0:06:46cos a pirate ship had lots of sea battles.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53Just a couple of detail lines here, cos the ship is made out of wood.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56And these be the planks.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58Now, some nice big sails to push it along.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01I'm going to angle them like this so that they're catching the wind.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10I'm going to draw these two masts connecting up my sails.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15At the very top, these little flags as well.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22It wouldn't be a pirate ship without a skull and crossbones.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32There we go. Another quick art tip.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41DUCK QUACKS
0:07:51 > 0:07:52LOUD SNORING
0:07:52 > 0:07:53What's that noise?
0:07:53 > 0:07:56LOUD SNORING CONTINUES
0:08:09 > 0:08:10Oh, what? It's my dad!
0:08:10 > 0:08:11Oi, what you doing?
0:08:11 > 0:08:13More like what are you doing in my bed?!
0:08:13 > 0:08:15Mum's been keeping me awake with her snoring
0:08:15 > 0:08:17and I needed to catch up with some Z's.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19Monster slippers?!
0:08:19 > 0:08:21I thought you were the Yeti of Bristol!
0:08:21 > 0:08:23I know I'm hairy, but that's a bit much.
0:08:23 > 0:08:27I've got art to make, and YOU had better make my bed.
0:08:27 > 0:08:28OK, then.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34Now go to the website and get your ninja on.
0:08:38 > 0:08:39Art Ninja!
