Lip Synch is a series of five 1989-1990 short films made by Aardman Animations which used vox pops as inspiration for their subject matter.
Nick Park's contribution to the series was the film Creature Comforts, which later won the Academy Award for Best Animated Short of 1990.
[3] Peter Lord said: "We wanted other people who work here to direct, rather than just David and I, which was the historical situation.
Barry Purves was doing a lot of freelance work for us at that time, and we wanted him to make one, because he is a very good animator.
There was a plan at one stage to make the series much more coherent, working to the same theme but somehow that got lost along the way, and everyone did pretty well what they wanted.
