A fun twist on the King Kong story. Retro backgrounds and character design in high-gloss 3D animation works well here.

The Baggage

Leave a comment Posted by on May 29, 2019

A small, sappy, but funny, story of baggage. I suppose it could be applied to baggage of all sorts, from carry-ons to sacks-of-rocks.

Sam is late for his flight and doing all he can to get there on time. Unfortunately for Sam his bag has other ideas.

Animated by Peter Butler.

Teaching Infinity

Leave a comment Posted by on May 28, 2019

A beautiful and imaginative animation that follows ‘Omega’, a spacer who must deal with an unusual situation and a bit of space/time oddity.

A surreal journey of a space castaway. Lost emergency capsules, a remote planet and close encounters with an intriguing Alien. A woman and her little robot companion investigate mysteries of a planet. Time and space play tricks on them.

Animated by Bartek Kik and Jakub Jablonski at Platige Image.

The hyper-realism is riveting in this showcase for Unity Technology’s game development platform. Even as a showreel, the story is surprisingly dense. Don’t assume a lack of moving parts, story-wise, means a simple tale. It has unexpected depth.
