Not a game show

Blinkity Blank (1955)

Directed by Norman McLaren this animated short film has music from Maurice Blackman. Coloured dots on black film dance around in various shapes and figures.

Progressing from his earlier film Hen Hop (1942) this is a continuation of and improvement on the same style of animation. The images fit the music well and the pictures are fairly entertaining. Even if there is no real narrative this short is worth a watch.


3/5
