'The Adventures of Mikey Rabbit' by Jake Stoodley




Jake's story has been loosely based on his friend Mikey's weekend binges at Snow Hill, names have not been changed, he may be hoping that Mikey won't recognise himself as a tattooed rabbit.

His animatic as you see it here on Flickr isn't finished yet, it will have a narrator's voice who sounds like DJ Lance Rock in Yo Gabba Gabba who will be ineffectually telling Mikey Rabbit off as he makes drunken mayhem.

Jake originally photocopied his drawings in black and white but they lost so much of their aesthetic qualities that he was persuaded by the other students to keep the coloured collages. His stick and ink drawings are similarly appealing, showing a particularly apt naive line. Jake also hope to go on to study illustration and/or animation at degree level so if you like what you see then leave a comment to let him know.

1. Mikey is at Snow Hill toilets. Narrator; 'What are you doing? What's that? I think you should put that down'
2. Mikey is near the grass area. Narrator; 'Have you got a bad tummy? I told you not to drink that stuff'
3. He's walked to the grass area. Narrator; 'Mikey are you OK?'
4.He's got big and bad. Narrator; 'Mikey are you a bad mo fo?'
5. He has fallen asleep behind the box. Narrator; 'What have you done Mikey? Oops the police are coming'
