Folksy orchestrations (banjo, accordian, violin, light percussion) accompany the whistled theme. It’s quite similar to the original tv-theme, possibly following the same – or similar – chord progression. Eshkeri presents his own original theme in “Humdrum Day”. The score for “Shaun the Sheep Movie” is a colourful and eclectic affair.
For the score they turned to Ilan Eshkeri (who hasn’t ignored the original theme tune by Mark Thomas). It’s their directorial debut, but they have previously been involved with “Chicken Run”, “Madagascar”, “Canimals” and various other productions. After four series they dediced to make this movie.
“Shaun the Sheep” is an Aardman creation (he originally featured in “Wallace & Gromit”, before getting his own spin-off show) and first aired on television back in 2007. Wow, it’s not often you see Shaun, Babe and Schindler referenced in the space of two sentences!) Shaun’s a lot funnier though (I mean… “Babe in the City” is one of the most depressing films I’ve ever seen, and yes I have seen “Schindler’s List”. baaaaad?Ī bit like Babe before him, Shaun the sheep leaves the farm and heads out into the big city. Shaun heads out in the city, accompanied by smiley songs and a colourful score by Ilan Eshkeri. It’s shear entertainment! There, pun done.
