Animation, Art, and Other Shiny Things
This little film doesn’t tell a big story, nor have a deep meaning. It’s a vignette in the middle of a workday, of a caretaker caring for their flock, a simple moment where we’ve all played one part or another.
The special bit is the workplace and the characters – beautiful and imaginative.

A Mermaid, that appears to have some Electric Eel in her ancestry and possibly some Siren, vamps a pair of sailors on a fishing boat – or rather tries to vamp them…
Another great story from the students at ESMA. Directed by Louise Aubertin, Eloïse Girard, Marine Meneyrol, Jonas Ritter, Loucas Rongeart, and Amandine Thomoux.
I’ve posted several films by Ringling College of Arts + Design students over the years. The animation is good; lighting, models, background detail, all excellent, as they should be. But it’s the stories that consistently make Ringling films shine. This is another wonderful little tale.
A macho toy arcade prize is quick to judge a young girl who wants to win him, and goes on a life changing journey in attempt to stop her from winning enough tickets and taking him home.

A persistent beggar and a flock of pigeons wage a running, riding, and flying battle across turn-of-the-last-century Paris for a food delivery driver’s dish. This could end badly…
Another excellent track from Animusic for a Friday night music video. This is off their first video collection released in 2001.
This is a lively romp somewhere in the universe and it puts a bit of a spin on panspermia. Beautifully rendered with great characters.

I’ve been an Animusic fan since they released their first compilation in 2001. I wore out the vhs tape and almost a second one before finally getting a dvd. Animusic 2 raised the bar even further. This track is a great example of just how enjoyable Animusic is.
Unfortunately it looks like Animusic 3 won’t get made, despite a funded Kickstarter a few years back. We can only hope someone picks it up.
Check out the original Pipe Dream video.
You know the destruction a kitten, puppy, or baby can do in a matter of moments. Now imagine what a young pair of scissors can accomplish.

Idiot parking is universal. A fun little film with a story we can all relate to.

A Frankensteinian hero is made, not born.
