NOOT, NOOT!

On 28 May 1986, the first episode, 'Pingu: A Story for Preschool Children" of the later same named Swiss stop-motion claymation children's show was produced.

Still voiced by creator Otmar Gutmann himself, Pingu's now iconic "noot-noot" sound was made by a kazoo for the pilot, that would be first shown at the Berlinale 1987, winning the Kleiner Bär award.

Over the following decades, 'Pingu' would be broadcast in more than 150 countries around the world.

Last call for animators and puppeteers for the next #AnimationArray episode! I’ve got space for one or two more things (under 4 mins). Who’s going to send something in then? 🎬
