Here’s a weird thing. At the South Axholme Community School in South Yorkshire, they have a project on Satire In Animation. Somehow, Make Mine Shoebox is one of the films being studied. (link to the project here)

Some of the questions in the exercise are probably impossible to answer, because they are inside jokes, intended for an audience of people who work at the company. Others are really good questions.

Here’s the best quote from the exercise:
“Why is it that a company would pay for this satirical animation– what is in it for them?” Indeed.

Anyway, it’s flattering to see it being studied. You kids keep up the good work!
