Created in 2023 and based on a historical event. This animation is about Seaford's great explosion back in the 1850's where they blew up a cliff face to use as a barrier against the sea.
This project was an unpaid commission for an event located in Seaford called "Walk the chalk", an event to help restore Seaford's seafront as-well and telling its history.

Testimonial
Tom’s animation of the Great Explosion of 1850 in Seaford for “Walk the Chalk” was an absolute delight. It was unique, well researched, beautifully crafted and quirky in its delivery. Tom shows great promise as an animator, delivered on time and should be proud of what he achieved. LYT Productions would not hesitate to use Tom for animation in future projects. Personally, I cannot wait to see Tom’s career develop and I very much look forward to working with him again.
