Bunny is an upcoming 30-minute innovative, atmospheric Christmas special produced by Visionality, creator of the BooSnoo! programme. Throughout this imaginative fantasy, which combines live action with 3D CG and 2D animation, viewers will be able to see the sounds and hear the uplifting orchestral Christmas music as it merges with the visuals, allowing children of whatever hearing ability to enjoy the experience. Using minimal words with immersive sounds and visualized foley, it is deaf and sensory focused, but is accessible for all viewers.
Premise[]
A journey through the beautiful British countryside on a clear, crisp Christmas Eve. It follows the adventures of the beloved toy Bunny of a young deaf girl, who returns home from a raucous shopping trip and is being ignored by her hearing (and very noisy) family. When her toy is dropped getting out of the car, it seems like another disaster for the girl. But then, in the quiet solitude of the driveway, the toy Bunny comes to life. It takes some time out to explore the peaceful environment. Bunny doesn’t go far, and as it relaxes into its surroundings, it finds itself immersed in a series of increasingly joyful, sensory moments that blend fantasy and reality and lead her from family chaos to festive fun. Just as Bunny returns home, we get a whole new perspective with a final reveal that the little girl (who felt invisible in her family) has been with us on the journey the whole time.
