Musivision is preparing a Kickstarter campaign in Autumn 2015 to raise financing for a feature length documentary film on Gerald Potterton.

His dry British humour, life on a 200 acre farm in the eastern townships, Gerald can tell us about what it was like to work with

Buster Keaton and animating the Beatles Yellow Submarine. Learn about the never released film with a sound track written by Ringo Starr.

Scouse the Mouse an animation film conceived by Gerald based on a story written by

British actor Donald Pleasance. A film that nearly made it.

 

Potterton has influenced a generation of animators even the creators of South Park Trey Parker and Matt Stone.

The result was an entire South Park episode. A parody of Major Boobage ultimately the highest honour to Potterton's

South Park spoofed an entire episode dedicated to Gerald' s cult classic animated feature Heavy Metal.
