I'm an animator and I would love parents thoughts on this.

Hi I am a UK animator and I am trying to set up my own channel for kids. It is totally safe and adorably cute.
I would really love to hear what parents of young children think of this content.

Thank you!

Sorry OP, everything is wrong. I agree with previous posters. Is this a joke?!

Wrong outfit.
Inappropriate dance moves, especially at 26 seconds. Some sort of dirty dancing, ride the pony thing.

You can’t seriously think this is a good plan for kids?

8pinksnails · 29/05/2018 16:20

Outfits are horrendous however I was watching it myself and my 1 year old heard it, climbed onto my lap and watched the rest of it with me .

Notsooriginalwerther · 29/05/2018 16:20

My dd is 1 and was kind of entertained by this - she kept trying to touch the bunny on the screen and she did some ‘dancing’ Grin but I don’t know why I just wasn’t 100% on the outfits. It looks like you’re trying to make her relevant and a bit cooler than the Peter rabbit gang but she’s a bit toooo edgy for the rabbit world imo. But amazing animation technically speaking :)

SleepFreeZone · 29/05/2018 16:20

Omg what the fuck have I just watched!!! That was disturbing Confused

ColoursOfRain · 29/05/2018 16:23

Skin tight hot pants on shaking ample thighs and bum. Very sexualised.

ChocolatePeacock · 29/05/2018 16:27

Nope! I've got two girls and I wouldn't encourage them to watch this. Too much over sexualised stuff out there already. Can she wear dungarees and fix stuff?

Moonkissedlegs · 29/05/2018 16:30

OK I have just shown this to my 4 year old daughter: she loved it. She also said 'that looks like Cotton Tail from Peter Rabbit'.

My own feedback:
Gold lame hotpants?
Agree as well about the booty lumps and bumps of the bunny sillouhette!
And do you have copyright for the music?
And yes, too close to Peter Rabbit.

Overall, it is a good animation though and kids would love it!

GingerIvy · 29/05/2018 16:33

If you're looking for feedback/research of this kind, I assume you've gone through MNHQ to approve this? Hmm

ColoursOfRain · 29/05/2018 16:40

And isn't Fuff a bit close to Foof - which is the part of her anatomy that the dance seems to focus on...

Are you sure this is not a joke? Why can't it be a boy rabbit? A bit too close to bunny girls, really...

VerbenaBoriensis · 29/05/2018 16:46

Looks like a sexed up version of the rabbit (male) in film called 'Hop'. Plus quite irritating.

😂

ColoursOfRain · 29/05/2018 16:52

Sorry, it seems not to be a joke.

Just desexualise it and it'd be great for children.

fuffbunny · 29/05/2018 17:02

Thanks very much for all your very honest feedback. It seems Fuff will need to wear bigger shorts, as I'm not going to put her on a diet! Nor make her a boy. :)
She will definitely need to stop watching contemporary dance videos.

Seriously though. Thank you all for taking the time to express your views. It's been very interesting.

She doesn't need to be a boy to wear dungarees and fix stuff Confused (assuming that's what you are referring to there)

SporkInTheToaster · 29/05/2018 17:06

Fuff needs to stop watching Magic Mike.

fuffbunny · 29/05/2018 17:16

Indeed dungarees are not just for boys, nor is fixing stuff. I was referring to the person who asked 'why can't it be a boy rabbit'.

Apologies fuff fair enough Smile

SmashedMug · 29/05/2018 17:21

Very catchy but cbeebies and Peter rabbit will be after you for the sexed up cotton tail character!

She looked cuter in the ballet dress :)

Racecardriver · 29/05/2018 17:21

Could you make it a bit less annoying? Maybe have her singing Bob Dylan instead? Would happily let my kids watch that gold hot pants or not.

Racecardriver · 29/05/2018 17:22

Impressed by the animation though. Very professiobal

StringandGlitter · 29/05/2018 17:24

I quite like it and I can imagine kids dancing along. Although what is she saying at 52 seconds?

I replayed it three times and it sounds like “I like to dance...until you fuck”

That’s not it ... surely!

NoTeaForMe · 29/05/2018 17:38

I’d change the voice, the outfits, the dance moves and the general shape of the rabbit. In the red top a few times it looks like she has breasts. It’s clearly aimed at little pre-schoolers so make it as appropriate. I don’t know why you thought her outfits and “sexy” moves would be ok?!

fuffbunny · 29/05/2018 17:41

Hehe. Thanks String and Glitter. She is singing 'I totally rock and so do you'. Fuff is a nice girl, despite her penchant for gold shorts! LOL.

Having just watched it, she looks like a playboy bunny.
