Mish and Mash TV.

A concept for a childrens' programme (in 3D) created, designed and written by Caroline Cunningham-Oakes MA. Studied at the presigious Winchester School of Art, and later on the then (Camberwell College of Art) now, the UNiversity of the Arts, London. I chose to study Fine Art: Printmaking for both degrees. I then went on to study an MSc at Oxford Brookes University finishing with a Masters' degree in Digital Media Production.

Mish and Mash have been modelled and rigged by myself using Maya. It is hard work- I am still working on them now- hoping to use motion capture to animate them more naturally. The ideas for Mish and Mash came to me after I wasn't very well about 3 years ago. I was unable to do any drawing or writing- I was limited to doing very little. To keep my mind active, I conjured up what I think would be a popular and enjoyable childrens' tv program- aimed at kids - 5-8 years old.

As I got better (this took 2 years for me to recover from my injury) I was then progressing bit by bit and started to regain my drawing skills. Difficult as it was- I stuck to it. I knew that from the very onset of creating these characters, they would be very popular. They have been tried and tested already and of course they have gone down a treat. I am a very determined person and, after what I went through a few years ago has driven me to really work hard to get recognition for my Mish and Mash TV characters.

Mish and Mash TV illustrations feature in a solo exhibition in the heart of Oxford from April 2nd - April 29th 2011.
