Harry Partridge

For this module I need to list various artists and analyse/research them, so I thought I would list one of my favourite animators at the moment, Harry Partridge. This is mainly because of the quality of the frame by frame animation he creates, the use of dark/absurd humor in his animations, and the great, weird colour palettes he uses. Among my favorite animations of his are 'DR. BEES', the 'Starbarians' series, and 'Hitman Absolution: Hiding in Plain Sight'.


I mainly like this animation due to the fact that it's just so silly, and slightly dark, but it fits Harry's style so well. The animation is about a Wasp-themed super hero by day, Dr. Bees by night, and follows various scenarios involving bees. There are more videos involving Dr. Bees by Harry Partridge, but this is still my favourite.


This is the first episode of Starbarians, and is where we meet the two main characters, and see them 'face off' against an evil-doer. My favourite thing about this episode is the take on typical evil-trap type situations often seen in films.
