You might want to clarify for people, before getting their hopes up, that this appears to be an independent project done at somebody's home ("All of the models were built by myself, and the sets were made with help from my dad") and isn't officially supported*, either ("Wallace's voices were recorded from the four wallace and gromit films").
Not that I'm suggesting it's in any way bad or not worth watching - I love derivative fan works (notably, the parody Star Wreck: In The Pirkinning, for example, or Star Wars: Revelations, or Star Trek: Of Gods and Men, which actually starred a bunch of real Trek actors) and they can often be pretty good. The sound and quality of the clay surfaces in this clearly aren't up to Aardman's standards, although for a home claymation, it is pretty darn impressive (I've done a short one before, so I know). However, it is generally best to clarify that this isn't a new Wallace and Gromit, per se, and not get peoples' hopes up. It's just a fan flick.
* Although it is sanctioned officially, and indeed was selected as Nick Park's "Creation of the Month" on the official Wallace and Gromit website.
EDIT: stupid hyperlinks, not cooperating with me.

* That said, it is sanctioned officially, and indeed was selected as Nick Park's "Creation of the Month" on the official Wallace and Gromit website. I want to make one! I want to make one! |
