Sledgehammer – Peter Gabriel

“Pete, we want you to lay under a sheet of glass for sixteen hours while we mess around with bits of Play-Doh. You up for it?” LONG PAUSE. “Er...yeah ok.” Such was the scene just before this epic went into production. The stop motion photography was produced by Aardman Animations, creators of Creature Comforts and of course, Wallace and Gromit. Always near the top of best video charts, it won a record nine MTV VMA awards in 1987. Best bit: The egg hatching into dancing chickens is cracking, Gromit. Sorry.
