0:00:02 > 0:00:04- I'm Lauren.- And I'm Mark. - And this is the Dengineers.
0:00:04 > 0:00:08The show that puts you in charge of building your very own dream den.
0:00:08 > 0:00:09Wow!
0:00:09 > 0:00:11Indoors.
0:00:11 > 0:00:13- Is this yours?- Yeah!
0:00:13 > 0:00:14Outdoors.
0:00:14 > 0:00:16Oh, that's so cool!
0:00:16 > 0:00:17Even underground
0:00:17 > 0:00:19- Whoa!- That's amazing!
0:00:19 > 0:00:21Whatever you want,
0:00:21 > 0:00:23the Dengineers team are here to transform your ideas
0:00:23 > 0:00:25into amazing spaces.
0:00:25 > 0:00:27Built especially for you.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30Here we go!
0:00:30 > 0:00:33ALL: This den is done!
0:00:36 > 0:00:39- Hello...- Amazing!
0:00:45 > 0:00:48Woo!
0:00:53 > 0:00:55SHE GASPS
0:00:55 > 0:00:56- Wow!- Oh, wow!
0:01:01 > 0:01:04Hello and welcome to the Dengineers.
0:01:04 > 0:01:06We are so excited about this episode.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08We certainly are,
0:01:08 > 0:01:11because we are getting all creative here in Manchester,
0:01:11 > 0:01:13to build an arty-themed den
0:01:13 > 0:01:15for a budding artist named Nyobi.
0:01:15 > 0:01:17It's going to an absolute corker!
0:01:17 > 0:01:19So less of the chat, let's get cracking!
0:01:19 > 0:01:21Er... Mark, can I have a piggyback, please?
0:01:21 > 0:01:23- Yeah, sure thing. Jump on!- Yes!
0:01:23 > 0:01:25Go! Yeah!
0:01:31 > 0:01:33Let's meet today's Dengineer.
0:01:33 > 0:01:34My name's Nyobi
0:01:34 > 0:01:36and I'm nine years old,
0:01:36 > 0:01:38and I live in Manchester
0:01:38 > 0:01:39with my mum.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41What game are we playing today, Nyobi?
0:01:41 > 0:01:44'I would like to have help from the Dengineers,'
0:01:44 > 0:01:47so I can have a really cool den in my room.
0:01:49 > 0:01:53I love art, especially drawing and sketching.
0:01:53 > 0:01:57I'd love to do more art, but I don't have the right materials.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00Nyobi's room is currently cramped
0:02:00 > 0:02:02with no space for her to do her art -
0:02:02 > 0:02:04and because her and her mum live in a house
0:02:04 > 0:02:06owned by a housing association,
0:02:06 > 0:02:09it's usually difficult for them to make any changes to it.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11It would be amazing to have a den,
0:02:11 > 0:02:14so I can do all my art in there.
0:02:14 > 0:02:18I really need help from the Dengineers.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21'And Nyobi is going to be getting help from the Dengineers,
0:02:21 > 0:02:22'she just doesn't know it yet.'
0:02:27 > 0:02:29Very soon, Nyobi is going to be coming into
0:02:29 > 0:02:32this very sports hall to do a dance class.
0:02:32 > 0:02:35Nyobi and her class think that they are being filmed
0:02:35 > 0:02:37for a report about ballet,
0:02:37 > 0:02:40but what they don't know is that it's actually me, Mark
0:02:40 > 0:02:42and the Dengineers team who are here to surprise her
0:02:42 > 0:02:47and reveal that she's going to have her dream den made.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49This is going to be one epic surprise and,
0:02:49 > 0:02:53as the Dengineers camera crew set up in the sports hall,
0:02:53 > 0:02:56we're painting a picture to give to Nyobi's dance class.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58- What is that?- A tutu.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00- A tutu?- Yeah.- Hmm.
0:03:01 > 0:03:05Nyobi loves art, so we thought we'd show her some of our own...
0:03:05 > 0:03:07artistic skills.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10- What is that? That's the wrong... Oh, it's her top.- No, it's her top!
0:03:10 > 0:03:13- That's her top? OK, I like that. - Thank you!
0:03:13 > 0:03:14Oh, this is great.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16Oh, is that her neck?
0:03:16 > 0:03:17What are you doing?
0:03:17 > 0:03:19- There. Look. Shoulder. - This is going wrong.
0:03:19 > 0:03:20Shoulder.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22That's all right!
0:03:22 > 0:03:23That's... No!
0:03:23 > 0:03:25Look how long, abnormally long, her neck is!
0:03:25 > 0:03:27Look how big her arms are.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29She looks like she's been on the weights.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Oh, no!
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Oh, she's done blue hair. Blue hair!
0:03:33 > 0:03:34She's given her blue hair.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36She's ruined it. I'm actually taking this seriously
0:03:36 > 0:03:38and she's given her blue hair.
0:03:38 > 0:03:39I actually wanted...
0:03:39 > 0:03:41I actually thought this was looking good
0:03:41 > 0:03:42and now you've completely ruined it.
0:03:42 > 0:03:46That's nice! That's really looking great, don't you think?
0:03:46 > 0:03:49I'm never, ever, ever, ever letting you paint again!
0:03:49 > 0:03:52Our masterpiece is finished in the nick of time,
0:03:52 > 0:03:56as Nyobi and her dance class are about to arrive.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59TENSE MUSIC PLAYS
0:03:59 > 0:04:03They have no idea that they're literally walking right past us.
0:04:03 > 0:04:04(They're there, they're there.)
0:04:04 > 0:04:06(Keep down.)
0:04:06 > 0:04:08(Ben, get down, get down.)
0:04:08 > 0:04:11(You're by the window.)
0:04:12 > 0:04:14Come on in, children.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16(They're in, they're in, they're in.)
0:04:16 > 0:04:18- (Door's shut.)- That was a close call.
0:04:20 > 0:04:25Dance teacher Helen is in on the act...
0:04:25 > 0:04:27but the dance class think that they're being filmed
0:04:27 > 0:04:30for a sports show about ballet.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33And while Nyobi and her class practise their pirouettes,
0:04:33 > 0:04:36Helen sneaks off to get the painting.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38- (Hi, Helen.)- (How's it going?)
0:04:38 > 0:04:40- Right, you get that in. - I shall take that in.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42- I hope they like it.- Yes, So do I.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44Tell them to enjoy the masterpiece.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47- (Don't tell her it was by us.) - No, I won't!
0:04:47 > 0:04:50Remember the class have no idea who painted it.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52Two very special people
0:04:52 > 0:04:54have painted this picture.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58'The dancers are unimpressed...
0:04:58 > 0:05:00'but it's given us time to, erm,
0:05:00 > 0:05:02'subtly sneak down the corridor.
0:05:02 > 0:05:04'What are we doing?'
0:05:04 > 0:05:06(We're getting closer now.)
0:05:06 > 0:05:07Point under, bend under,
0:05:07 > 0:05:08point under, close.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10Hello, everybody!
0:05:10 > 0:05:12So sorry to interrupt you.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14What did you reckon of the painting?
0:05:16 > 0:05:19But I think it's fair to say that the painting wasn't that great,
0:05:19 > 0:05:21cos we're not very good at art...
0:05:21 > 0:05:23but there is one person in here
0:05:23 > 0:05:26who is VERY good at art.
0:05:26 > 0:05:27Where is Nyobi?
0:05:28 > 0:05:30Come down here, Nyobi!
0:05:30 > 0:05:32Come down and stand next to me, here.
0:05:32 > 0:05:33- Hello, Nyobi.- Hello.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36Now, girls, we need to tell you
0:05:36 > 0:05:38that these guys aren't actually
0:05:38 > 0:05:40filming a report about ballet.
0:05:40 > 0:05:46In fact, we are all part of CBBC show, the Dengineers.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49Nyobi,
0:05:49 > 0:05:51you're going to have your dream den made.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54What just happened to me was...
0:05:54 > 0:05:56the greatest thing ever.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00Lauren and Mark just came in
0:06:00 > 0:06:03and told me that they were from Dengineers,
0:06:03 > 0:06:05and I couldn't believe it!
0:06:05 > 0:06:06Nyobi,
0:06:06 > 0:06:08you are going to have your dream den made.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10(Oh, my gosh.)
0:06:10 > 0:06:11Yay!
0:06:11 > 0:06:13'I was really elated'
0:06:13 > 0:06:17and my feet nearly came off the ground when I heard that.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19Are you shocked?
0:06:19 > 0:06:21You look very, very shocked!
0:06:21 > 0:06:23What went through my mind was
0:06:23 > 0:06:25"I can't believe they're from the Dengineers
0:06:25 > 0:06:27"and I can't believe they came to my school."
0:06:27 > 0:06:30- Come on, Nyobi. Let's go! - See you later. Let's go, come on.
0:06:30 > 0:06:31Where's your shoes?
0:06:31 > 0:06:34I'm really excited and I can't stop smiling.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42Our first port of call is the Dengineers mobile HQ,
0:06:42 > 0:06:44which has some mega cool technology
0:06:44 > 0:06:46to get this den started.
0:06:46 > 0:06:47Let's walk.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50In here, we can find out more about what Nyobi wants
0:06:50 > 0:06:52her art-themed den to look like.
0:06:53 > 0:06:55So, Nyobi, here is where we download
0:06:55 > 0:06:57everything that's in your head,
0:06:57 > 0:06:58on to this computer!
0:06:58 > 0:07:01Shall we have a little look? Come on then.
0:07:01 > 0:07:02There we go.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Anything you like the look of...
0:07:04 > 0:07:05That one!
0:07:05 > 0:07:07- This one here.- Loads of paint pots.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10- Yeah.- You want to do painting in there, definitely?
0:07:10 > 0:07:12- Definitely.- OK, perfect.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14This one.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16So this is what you've just chose here is more digital art.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19It's not just painting with your hands, it's more computerised.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22- Do you like that idea?- Yeah.
0:07:22 > 0:07:27- This one.- Nice, so this is like a stop-motion animation studio.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30- Yeah!- Do you think that might be quite cool in there?
0:07:30 > 0:07:33Yeah, because I like doing animation at home.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Nyobi's mood board for her art den
0:07:35 > 0:07:38shows a cool combination of modern digital art
0:07:38 > 0:07:41and more traditional art, like painting.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44Well, I think that looks amazing.
0:07:44 > 0:07:45What do you think, Nyobi?
0:07:45 > 0:07:47- Amazing!- Amazing!
0:07:47 > 0:07:51Loving it. Well, I think it's time we get you turned into a Dengineer.
0:07:55 > 0:07:56So we've got the mood board.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00Now it's time for Nyobi and mum Dawn to show us the room.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03So, Nyobi, this is your room
0:08:03 > 0:08:06and this is the space that we're going to be turning into a den.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08How excited are you feeling?
0:08:08 > 0:08:10I'm really excited and I can't wait!
0:08:10 > 0:08:13I can't wait either, it's going to be so good.
0:08:13 > 0:08:15First of all, explain to me,
0:08:15 > 0:08:18what is the problem with this room when you're trying to do your art?
0:08:18 > 0:08:22Well, I don't have that much things to paint on
0:08:22 > 0:08:25because I do, like, big art sometimes.
0:08:25 > 0:08:28Ahh, interesting!
0:08:28 > 0:08:31Cos, actually, when you're trying to do a BIG piece of artwork...
0:08:31 > 0:08:33- this isn't really going to work for you, is it?- No.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36No. And, Mum, mess-wise,
0:08:36 > 0:08:38what have you seen in your time?
0:08:38 > 0:08:41I've seen glue on the bedding,
0:08:41 > 0:08:42paint on the bedding,
0:08:42 > 0:08:44paint on the floor,
0:08:44 > 0:08:45paint on the walls.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47THEY LAUGH
0:08:47 > 0:08:49Do you get in trouble for it?
0:08:49 > 0:08:50- Yes!- Oh, dear, right.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53And obviously you've got your clothes over here,
0:08:53 > 0:08:54you've got your toys down here,
0:08:54 > 0:08:56your art supplies down here.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58Do you feel like we need a space for that?
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Yeah, I really do feel like there needs to be, like,
0:09:00 > 0:09:03a really good space for all my things.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06Well, first of all, I think we need to get cracking,
0:09:06 > 0:09:07clearing all this out.
0:09:07 > 0:09:09Are you guys ready to help? DAWN SIGHS
0:09:09 > 0:09:11- Yes!- Yes. Come on then. Where do we start?
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Nyobi, point us in the right direction.
0:09:15 > 0:09:16Where are we putting these, in here?
0:09:20 > 0:09:22- It's bigger than you, that box, Nyobi.- I know.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29- You've got tonnes of clothes, Nyobi. - I know.- Wow!
0:09:36 > 0:09:38And the room is clear.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46Nyobi's mum has been a great help clearing out the room,
0:09:46 > 0:09:48but now it's Dengineers only
0:09:48 > 0:09:51and she won't be allowed to see the den until the big den reveal
0:09:51 > 0:09:53in a few days' time.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59With the room cleared and the carpet taken up,
0:09:59 > 0:10:04it's time for the Dengineers to get started on painting Nyobi's room
0:10:04 > 0:10:06and Lauren needs some tips from the art expert.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09- Shall I...? - Try not to put too much on!
0:10:09 > 0:10:11(Did you see that?)
0:10:11 > 0:10:13- Don't tell your mum. - I won't.- Whoopsie!
0:10:16 > 0:10:19So, who is your art hero, would you say?
0:10:19 > 0:10:21Ricky, Art Ninja.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23Art Ninja Ricky?
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Why Art Ninja Ricky?
0:10:26 > 0:10:29Well, he does lots of great art,
0:10:29 > 0:10:31and I just wish I could do it at home
0:10:31 > 0:10:34but I don't have the right materials.
0:10:34 > 0:10:35That's the problem, isn't it?
0:10:35 > 0:10:38And that's kind of why we need to get you a den sorted.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41'While Lauren and Nyobi finish the white paint,
0:10:41 > 0:10:43'it's time for a Den Hack.'
0:10:49 > 0:10:52Are you an iPad Picasso?
0:10:52 > 0:10:53A Galaxy Van Gogh?
0:10:53 > 0:10:56A touch-screen tablet Turner?
0:10:56 > 0:10:59Are you fed up finger-painting on your touch screen tablet
0:10:59 > 0:11:00when you should be brushing
0:11:00 > 0:11:02like the other masters?
0:11:02 > 0:11:03Well, this simple hack
0:11:03 > 0:11:06will solve all your artistic angst.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09This is the...
0:11:24 > 0:11:27It's as simple as that.
0:11:28 > 0:11:32Now you can draw to your heart's content with this stylish stylus.
0:11:33 > 0:11:35Magnifique!
0:11:38 > 0:11:40The undercoat is finished,
0:11:40 > 0:11:43but no Dengineering den should have boring white walls,
0:11:43 > 0:11:45so we're going to paint some stripes,
0:11:45 > 0:11:47using Nyobi's favourite colour, yellow.
0:11:49 > 0:11:50That's such a nice colour, isn't it?
0:11:50 > 0:11:52Yeah.
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Ooh.
0:11:54 > 0:11:55I did a bad thing.
0:11:55 > 0:11:56What did you do?
0:11:56 > 0:11:58I went over the line!
0:11:58 > 0:12:01I shouldn't be allowed to do this, should I?
0:12:01 > 0:12:04Perhaps just put it down here.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06She's taken it off me.
0:12:06 > 0:12:08The Dengineers have put special masking tape
0:12:08 > 0:12:11in straight horizontal lines on the walls...
0:12:11 > 0:12:13Ready?
0:12:13 > 0:12:14..so that when they're peeled off,
0:12:14 > 0:12:17the stripes should be perfectly neat.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19Ahhhh!
0:12:19 > 0:12:20SHE GASPS
0:12:20 > 0:12:23Shh. Shh! We're just going to fix that
0:12:23 > 0:12:25with a little bit of paint.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27No-one needs to know.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30No-one needs to know. OK.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33Oh, no, this is actually really bad, guys.
0:12:33 > 0:12:35This is a job for the pros,
0:12:35 > 0:12:37so while they sort my mess out,
0:12:37 > 0:12:41I thought I'd get out of the way and have a chat with Dawn.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44So, Dawn, tell me about your, kind of, living situation.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46Well, it's me and Nyobi,
0:12:46 > 0:12:47and she's my best friend.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49She's my little bestie.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52She's my shadow and she's my heartbeat as well.
0:12:52 > 0:12:53You must be so proud of her.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56I am indeed, I'm super proud.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59I mean, she's not a child to always want,
0:12:59 > 0:13:00but when she does need something,
0:13:00 > 0:13:02I know it's always for a good cause
0:13:02 > 0:13:04and it's for her to develop -
0:13:04 > 0:13:06but she is, she's a great kid and she's funny.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09She's such a good-hearted kid, isn't she?
0:13:09 > 0:13:10Absolutely funny. She is.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12And obviously, it's Dengineers only.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15You are locked out. How are you feeling about that?
0:13:15 > 0:13:17It's like the day before Christmas,
0:13:17 > 0:13:18that's how I feel.
0:13:18 > 0:13:19I just can't wait.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22- It's going to be absolutely amazing. - I can imagine, I can imagine.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24But I do want a pinkie promise, no peeping!
0:13:24 > 0:13:30- Half a pinkie promise.- No! Full-on pinkie... Full-on pinkie promise!
0:13:30 > 0:13:35Dawn and Nyobi are both mega excited about this den.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38As they live in a house owned by a housing association,
0:13:38 > 0:13:41they're not usually able to make changes to their home and,
0:13:41 > 0:13:43as art supplies can be expensive,
0:13:43 > 0:13:46Nyobi is rarely able to get the kit she needs.
0:13:46 > 0:13:50This den is going to be life-changing.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53And we've got just the designer for the job.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56It's Dee.
0:13:56 > 0:13:57She's a digital genius
0:13:57 > 0:14:01who's designed a game that teaches kids how to code.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04Dee's techy ideas will make Nyobi's art den totally awesome.
0:14:08 > 0:14:10So, we're going to turn this bedroom
0:14:10 > 0:14:12into an awesome artist's workshop
0:14:12 > 0:14:14and it's going to have loads of art supplies,
0:14:14 > 0:14:17and we're going to put some really cool tech stuff in there.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19And we've had a stop-motion theatre especially made for you
0:14:19 > 0:14:22because we heard you really like stop-motion animation,
0:14:22 > 0:14:23- is that right?- Yeah!
0:14:23 > 0:14:25And you can show off all your work,
0:14:25 > 0:14:27so there will be a projector, just on the wall,
0:14:27 > 0:14:29and you can project all of your stuff on there,
0:14:29 > 0:14:32and people will just be able to come in and see what you've done
0:14:32 > 0:14:33and it will be so cool.
0:14:33 > 0:14:37- I'm really speechless. - I know you are!
0:14:37 > 0:14:39As well as the stop-motion theatre
0:14:39 > 0:14:41and on-wall projector,
0:14:41 > 0:14:45there will be some funky wall storage for Nyobi's new art supplies
0:14:45 > 0:14:48and a fold down desk where she can do her art.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50There'll also be a high bed
0:14:50 > 0:14:51with storage underneath
0:14:51 > 0:14:54for all of Nyobi's personal things,
0:14:54 > 0:14:56and a brand-new wipeable floor
0:14:56 > 0:14:59on which she can make all the mess she wants!
0:15:02 > 0:15:03As part of the den design,
0:15:03 > 0:15:05there's going to be a fake stud wall
0:15:05 > 0:15:07put up across the back of the bedroom.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10This is so the Dengineers can build, onto this wall,
0:15:10 > 0:15:12a special fold down desk.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15This wall will also be able to hold up the bespoke storage
0:15:15 > 0:15:17for Nyobi's new art equipment.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21And while the team crack on,
0:15:21 > 0:15:23Dee has got something really special
0:15:23 > 0:15:26for Nyobi to have in her den.
0:15:26 > 0:15:27We've got you this tablet
0:15:27 > 0:15:29- and it's just for you.- Wow!
0:15:29 > 0:15:32And you can use all these tools,
0:15:32 > 0:15:34so you've got, like, crayons
0:15:34 > 0:15:35and paintbrushes.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37This is my favourite.
0:15:37 > 0:15:39This is a top of the range,
0:15:39 > 0:15:41extra large tablet...
0:15:41 > 0:15:43which Nyobi can use to create
0:15:43 > 0:15:45all different types of art.
0:15:45 > 0:15:47It's so awesome, isn't it?
0:15:47 > 0:15:49- It's really cool!- I love it.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51So we've not just got you this tablet,
0:15:51 > 0:15:54we've got this really cool pen that goes with it,
0:15:54 > 0:15:56and you can actually open it up
0:15:56 > 0:15:57and it becomes a real paintbrush...
0:15:57 > 0:15:59- Cool!- ..like this.
0:15:59 > 0:16:04The paintbrush stylus really is the ultimate tool for doing digital art
0:16:04 > 0:16:08and will allow Nyobi to create proper brushstrokes on her tablet.
0:16:09 > 0:16:12And while Nyobi gets to grips with her new tech,
0:16:12 > 0:16:14work on the build is well underway.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18The Dengineers are now installing
0:16:18 > 0:16:21a new specially-made, space-saving door -
0:16:21 > 0:16:24which has a massive chalkboard on one side.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29They fix up the flip down desk.
0:16:29 > 0:16:30And attach the frames,
0:16:30 > 0:16:33which will store and display Nyobi's art supplies.
0:16:34 > 0:16:38They also lay down the green, wipeable, vinyl floor.
0:16:39 > 0:16:42It is all kicking off in Nyobi's room,
0:16:42 > 0:16:44but she won't see her den now
0:16:44 > 0:16:46until the Big Den Reveal in a few days' time.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55The den is well underway,
0:16:55 > 0:16:57so I've got Nyobi to come and meet me
0:16:57 > 0:16:59here at a random skate-park in Bristol
0:16:59 > 0:17:00for a bit of a surprise.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02Oh, I love surprises!
0:17:02 > 0:17:04And I think she's going to love this too,
0:17:04 > 0:17:07because she's going to be meeting her art hero,
0:17:07 > 0:17:10Ricky AKA the Art Ninja.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14Ricky is an amazing artist and animator
0:17:14 > 0:17:16who presents Nyobi's favourite show.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18Art Ninja!
0:17:18 > 0:17:20Nyobi has no idea
0:17:20 > 0:17:22she's about to meet her art idol.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26Here we are.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30Hi, Nyobi.
0:17:30 > 0:17:31RICKY LAUGHS
0:17:34 > 0:17:38- Shocked?- Are you going to come and say hello?- Come on!
0:17:38 > 0:17:41Hi, Nyobi. Nice to meet you. Yeah!
0:17:41 > 0:17:43So I heard you're big into animation and art?
0:17:43 > 0:17:45What kind of things do you like to do?
0:17:45 > 0:17:47I like painting, but sometimes it goes onto the floor
0:17:47 > 0:17:51- and I get in trouble by my mum. - Oh, no!- Oh, no!
0:17:51 > 0:17:55And I like to sketch a landscape.
0:17:55 > 0:17:56Ahh, yeah!
0:17:56 > 0:17:59So, Nyobi, we're not just here for a little chat - oh, no -
0:17:59 > 0:18:01you're actually going to be doing
0:18:01 > 0:18:03a little bit of Art Ninja art
0:18:03 > 0:18:04with Ricky himself.
0:18:04 > 0:18:06- Yay!- Yes!
0:18:06 > 0:18:09- But I think, first, we need to get our ninja on.- Yeah, we do.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11Art Ninja!
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Ricky is going to show Nyobi and Lauren
0:18:17 > 0:18:19a simple and super fun way
0:18:19 > 0:18:21to jazz up some plain paper.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24Right, the first thing we're going to need is some shaving foam,
0:18:24 > 0:18:26so I'll just ninja myself some.
0:18:26 > 0:18:27Yah!
0:18:30 > 0:18:32First, Ricky, Nyobi and Lauren
0:18:32 > 0:18:36are going to cover the bottom of the plastic box in the shaving foam...
0:18:36 > 0:18:37Mine's a bit messy!
0:18:39 > 0:18:41..then they drizzle some paint over it.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46Some people are obviously better than others.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49I like to keep a little bit of, like, a structured pattern.
0:18:49 > 0:18:51- What, structure?- Yeah.
0:18:51 > 0:18:52Yeah, don't worry about it, mate.
0:18:52 > 0:18:54Got it nailed.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58Next up, they get the end of the brush
0:18:58 > 0:19:02and make swirls in the paint...
0:19:02 > 0:19:05- Beautiful!- This is where you get the cool, marble effect.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07- Wonderful!- Wonderful!
0:19:07 > 0:19:08Are you impressed by that?
0:19:08 > 0:19:11This is why they call him the Art Ninja.
0:19:11 > 0:19:14..then they lay paper on top and squish it down...
0:19:14 > 0:19:17You can see through the paper that the marbling effect
0:19:17 > 0:19:19is already starting to soak into it.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21..and, finally, they pull up the paper
0:19:21 > 0:19:24and scrape away the paint and foam with a ruler.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26Right, let's hold them up.
0:19:26 > 0:19:29- Easy, tiger! - Careful, careful, careful.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31Yeah!
0:19:31 > 0:19:33Well done, guys! Ninja skills!
0:19:38 > 0:19:41Back at the build, Nyobi's projector is being installed.
0:19:43 > 0:19:45This is an awesome bit of kit,
0:19:45 > 0:19:47which can be used to display
0:19:47 > 0:19:48all of Nyobi's digital art,
0:19:48 > 0:19:50including any animations she makes
0:19:50 > 0:19:53on the amazing stop-motion theatre
0:19:53 > 0:19:55that has been specially made for her.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57I really want to get stuck in and have a go at this.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00- Can you show me how it all works? - Yeah, definitely.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02I think we should make our own little characters.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04I've kind of already started to make one.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06It was meant to be a unicorn, but...
0:20:06 > 0:20:08I think it's now more of a hippo.
0:20:08 > 0:20:09Yeah.
0:20:09 > 0:20:10I'll make another one,
0:20:10 > 0:20:13- you make the face for that then, yeah?- Cool, yeah!
0:20:13 > 0:20:15I am making a cobra snake.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17Oh, wow!
0:20:17 > 0:20:19What do you reckon about that for a snake?
0:20:19 > 0:20:21Pretty good?
0:20:21 > 0:20:25Mark is proper getting in touch with his artistic side,
0:20:25 > 0:20:27this is the quietest I've ever seen him!
0:20:27 > 0:20:29I'm really enjoying this.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31There we go, a cow with an udder.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34I mean, it's not bad...
0:20:34 > 0:20:38for a cow that only has two legs and can't stand up.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40Right, now we need to actually do this animation.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Right, OK.
0:20:42 > 0:20:47'Mark and Dee take a photograph of the characters...'
0:20:47 > 0:20:49- Oh!- Cool!
0:20:49 > 0:20:51'..then move them and take another photograph.'
0:20:53 > 0:20:55- So it's attacking.- ..and so on...
0:20:55 > 0:20:56Take it a bit closer again.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58..and so on.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00Eventually, they can play all of the photographs,
0:21:00 > 0:21:01one after another,
0:21:01 > 0:21:03to make an animated sequence.
0:21:05 > 0:21:07Let's just hope Nyobi's animations
0:21:07 > 0:21:08are a little bit better.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11That was cool. Nyobi is going to absolutely love it.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19As well as being an artist's studio,
0:21:19 > 0:21:22Nyobi's den has also got to be her bedroom,
0:21:22 > 0:21:26so the Dengineers set to work at building her bed.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28This will be a special, high-up bed
0:21:28 > 0:21:31with storage underneath for Nyobi's personal stuff,
0:21:31 > 0:21:34making it a brilliant space saver.
0:21:34 > 0:21:36While the Dengineers continue upstairs,
0:21:36 > 0:21:38it's time for an upcycle.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46We've had this cool idea for an upcycle,
0:21:46 > 0:21:48where we're going to turn an ironing board
0:21:48 > 0:21:50into storage for your art supplies.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54First, Dee takes off the small ironing board cover
0:21:54 > 0:21:57to reveal the metal mesh...
0:21:57 > 0:22:01then she attaches some hooks in various positions across the mesh.
0:22:02 > 0:22:06Next, she uses them to hang Nyobi's art supplies on,
0:22:06 > 0:22:08so that Nyobi can display her things
0:22:08 > 0:22:10in an organised and creative way.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16Dee has also got a soap dish
0:22:16 > 0:22:18that she can hang on to the bottom of the ironing board.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21And we've got something really great you can put in there
0:22:21 > 0:22:23and it's an instant camera,
0:22:23 > 0:22:25so you can basically take a picture of anything
0:22:25 > 0:22:27and just get printouts there and then.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29I think we should test it out.
0:22:29 > 0:22:30- Yeah!- OK.
0:22:32 > 0:22:33Smile!
0:22:34 > 0:22:36After the photo has been taken,
0:22:36 > 0:22:38it's saved on to a memory card
0:22:38 > 0:22:39and can be printed out
0:22:39 > 0:22:41on to sticky-backed photo paper.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43Wow! It's amazing!
0:22:44 > 0:22:48I think this is a great way to store all of your art supplies.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51This camera, along with the upcycled ironing board,
0:22:51 > 0:22:53is the perfect addition to Nyobi's den.
0:22:58 > 0:23:02It's nearly time for Nyobi's big den reveal
0:23:02 > 0:23:05and the Dengineers have got one final push
0:23:05 > 0:23:07to get everything ready in time.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14The clock is ticking,
0:23:14 > 0:23:15but the team is pulling together
0:23:15 > 0:23:17to get those final touches in place.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24And with a final flourish, Nyobi's den is complete.
0:23:36 > 0:23:37Just a few days ago,
0:23:37 > 0:23:39Nyobi's bedroom was cramped,
0:23:39 > 0:23:41with not much storage and no space
0:23:41 > 0:23:43for Nyobi to do the art she loves.
0:23:46 > 0:23:50Now it's an explosion of beautiful colour, light and space.
0:23:52 > 0:23:55It's not only a completely unique artist's studio,
0:23:55 > 0:23:58but also the most perfect bedroom.
0:24:00 > 0:24:01- Shall we get her in? - Yeah, let's do it.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04- You can do that cos you've got the loudest voice.- I do.
0:24:04 > 0:24:07- Call her up.- NYOBI!- Ah. - Come and see your den!
0:24:11 > 0:24:14Hey.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21This is so awesome!
0:24:21 > 0:24:22I can't believe it.
0:24:23 > 0:24:26- Do you love it or what?- I love it.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29- Is it what you dreamed of?- Yes.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31When I finally saw my finished den,
0:24:31 > 0:24:34I was like, "Oh, I can't believe this is happening to me!"
0:24:34 > 0:24:36So, I'm really happy!
0:24:36 > 0:24:38Have a look around.
0:24:38 > 0:24:40Make yourself at home, it's yours!
0:24:41 > 0:24:43It is like a dream come true
0:24:43 > 0:24:45because I never had the art supplies before,
0:24:45 > 0:24:49so I do think, like, it's going to help me to become an artist.
0:24:49 > 0:24:52Look at your bed. How cool is that?
0:24:52 > 0:24:54- Oh!- You're going to sleep up there!
0:24:54 > 0:24:57- How cool?- It's cool.
0:24:57 > 0:24:59And also, can we just
0:24:59 > 0:25:01check out the floor?
0:25:01 > 0:25:03This floor...is wipe clean,
0:25:03 > 0:25:05so you can make as much mess as you like
0:25:05 > 0:25:08and you're not going to get told off. High five to that!
0:25:08 > 0:25:10Boom! Love it, yeah!
0:25:10 > 0:25:13The Dengineers have done a really good job
0:25:13 > 0:25:14because we tried so hard and,
0:25:14 > 0:25:16in four days, we completed it,
0:25:16 > 0:25:19so, I'm really proud of them.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21So, Nyobi, big question -
0:25:21 > 0:25:23are you happy with your den?
0:25:23 > 0:25:24Yes, I'm happy with my den
0:25:24 > 0:25:27and this den is done.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29ALL: Yes!
0:25:29 > 0:25:31This is one life-changing den.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35The tablet,
0:25:35 > 0:25:37projector
0:25:37 > 0:25:39and stop-motion theatre
0:25:39 > 0:25:40will allow Nyobi
0:25:40 > 0:25:43to have a go at some incredible digital art,
0:25:43 > 0:25:44as well as having an abundance
0:25:44 > 0:25:47of more traditional art materials.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51Nyobi loves it, but what will her mum think?
0:25:53 > 0:25:55- Do you want to call your mum in? - Yeah.- Go for it.
0:25:55 > 0:25:58Mum!
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Oh!
0:26:10 > 0:26:12Nyobi...
0:26:12 > 0:26:14Oh, my...
0:26:14 > 0:26:16Oh, this is great!
0:26:16 > 0:26:17This isn't...

0:26:31 > 0:26:33and I seen the way that room was transformed,
0:26:33 > 0:26:35I was an emotional wreck.
0:26:35 > 0:26:37This can't be real!
0:26:37 > 0:26:41Oh, you're going to set me off, Dawn. Don't!

0:26:49 > 0:26:50she can now do that!
0:26:50 > 0:26:53She can visualise it and make it happen,
0:26:53 > 0:26:58and the Dengineers have basically brought her dream to life.
0:26:58 > 0:27:01Oh, it's so good. Thank you, guys!
0:27:01 > 0:27:04Thank you. This is amazing!
0:27:04 > 0:27:06Did you ever dream this would happen?
0:27:06 > 0:27:09Never. I always thought we could try and do something

0:27:18 > 0:27:20never at all,

0:27:27 > 0:27:29I think I'm really lucky.
0:27:29 > 0:27:32Shall we leave you to it, Nyobi, to show your mum everything?
0:27:32 > 0:27:35Yeah, you need to show her around. There's a lot more for her to see.
0:27:35 > 0:27:36Enjoy!
