It also said the Northumberland Street display would be accompanied by a soundtrack of The Twelve Days of Christmas, performed by Tyneside folk band The Unthanks.
Mr Riddell said he was “absolutely thrilled” with how his designs had been brought to life.
“My drawings and narrative have been brought to life through brilliant 3D creatives and fantastic moving characters – with the support of traditional mechanical movement,” he said.
“[I] hope everyone enjoys the windows as much as I do.”
It was officially unveiled on Sunday evening to a small crowd of invited guests.
The display will be open to the public from Monday.
