RON THE ZOOKEEPER's Blurbs |
About me:
From his humble beginnings drawing on the living room walls, to entertaining mates in art class with his cheeky R-rated clay creations, Darcy Prendergast's skills have grown enormously. Inspired greatly by the work of Jim Henson, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, and Little Britain's Dave Walliams and Matt Lucas, Prendergast mixes a gritty animated style with a twisted sense of humour to form a juggernaut of entertainment and controversy.
The latest film from the mischievous Australian Animator: RON THE ZOOKEEPER.
Ron the Zookeeper is about a rare male grey panda called Sushi, who is the last male grey Panda left in the entire world. Ron is sent in to attempt to retrieve a sperm sample from the endangered bear, to ensure the survival of the species.
Prendergast's main inspiration for Ron The Zookeeper was strangely enough his own father. Ron Prendergast was a keeper at the Melbourne Zoo for over twenty years. To the delight of his son, and to the disgust of his wife, Ron would often share his adventures over dinner. And this is where the idea for this intriguing film was born…
Ron the Zookeeper is Prendergast's third film. His first two films, Off The Rails (2004) and Repugnant (2005), received acclaim at festivals in Australia and abroad.
