Big Hive Wiki

ObjectTales is a children's animated series created by Big Hive featuring knickknacks in stories conveying moral themes base on Christanity.

## History

The show was created by Quinn Vischer and Zack Nawrocki when they wanted to create a series of videos teaching children about stories and lessons from the Bible, while making it fun and entertaining.

Quinn originally started out in 1990 when he wanted to use candy bars as a basis. However, his wife obejected the idea, as she thinks it's a bad influnce on kids. So he watched "Beauty and the Beast" and when he looked at Lumiere, Cogsworth, Mrs. Potts and the other antiques, he thought that was the best choice, objects. He chose these objects as he said they were easy to animate as compared to characters with limbs, clothes, or hair because of the limitations on 3D graphics during the early 90s'.

Quinn then joined with Zack Nawrocki, who they both did puppet shows in Bible college. Quinn did one on "The Princess and the Feather Duster", but telling it from the feather duster's perspective, but never made it as a puppet show. Ultimately, the sketches Quinn drew became the basis for ObjectTales.

The name itself came from Zack Nawrocki, as he felt it was a good title as it was about items telling stories.

While Chicken Little is considered the first animation film to use computer imagery for film, ObjectTales is the third video series using that type of animation prior to the film's release.

The series started with only either one or two episode(s) per year, until the company grew and produced three videos per year as of 2014. In 2016, no new episodes of the series were produced, likely due to Big Hive being too busy making the Netflix series.

According to Quinn in a recent podcast, Netflix will release 11 minute shorts exclusively along with new redesigns of the original cast. Not much is said about them, though Quinn says that they have colored iris', similar to the Sonic Boom series, and their mouths are more dynamic. He also says that Reznov’s hair looks swirly.
