|>> Paddington! <<|
]]]
Recently, RachelWright and I have been watching the episodes of
"The Adventures of Paddington Bear" that have been transmitted on
broadcast TV here in the UK.  It's not exactly gentle viewing, but
Paddington is kind, helpful (or tries to be), and it always turns
out well.  Not very realistic, but if you watch with the right
attitude, it is uplifting.  Judge us if you will - we don't care.

But I did notice something a bit odd.

Paddington is a full 3D computer animated production, and we can
have a look at some of the detail.  Here, Mr Brown is doing the
dishes, then hears something behind him ...

Then we get a wider shot, again of Mr Brown doing the dishes, but
have a look at the notes on the fridge ... and they've changed!

Why should they change?

In a "real life" shoot I can see the set being moved about and
things not being put back as they were, but this is a "model" in
a computer ... why should it change?

Then later they change again.

And again !!

In the second one there is a note missing, but that's because
Mrs Brown has taken it, so that's OK.

But look at the colours on the fridge magnets ... why should
they change like that?

I'm sure we could start to deduce something about the way the
animation is done, although I'm not sure there would be much
value in doing so.  There are other "continuity errors" to be
found, and while you probably wouldn't see them first time of
viewing, I wonder how obvious they might become on repeated
viewings.

So there's something going on here, some way that the "set"
being used is changed from "shot" to "shot", mimicking what
happens in a real-life shoot.

It's unnecessary, but to be honest, I find it rather charming.
