Wallace and Gromit are the main characters in a series of British animated claymation shorts and films created by Nick Park since 1989. The characters are animated using stop motion clay animation with plasticine figures. Originally intended for general entertainment, Wallace and Gromit targets children ages 5-15 but also appeals to adults ages 16-34 by keeping viewers entertained and joyful through its animation. The films have been promoted through advertisements for brands like PG Tips and Kingsmill bread as well as through events like "PYJAMAS" Day.
