I dunno if the story, the characters or the models r the strangest I have seen in a long time but this short is really well done.
Everything I Can See From Here

Indo masks, aliens, soccer and a dog.... what else do you need?!
Caldera by Evan Viera
Caldera (2012) from Evan Viera on Vimeo.
Very nice short by Evan Viera. It has a dark subject with an even darker resolution. It is about a girl that goes off of her medication...
Very suggestive.
Head Over Heels by: Timothy Reckart
This is another Oscar Nominated stop motion short.
Quite amazing.
Adam and Dog by: Minkyu Lee FULL short
Beauty and synthesis all wrapped around in a shell of appeal...Animated by Disneys animators and directed by Minkyu Lee
“Where Mary Lives..” by Shako
Very very creepy short by Shibabrata Chakraborty. It really caught me off guard.....
“Pear Cider and Cigarettes” by Robert Valley
I think I have met one or two people like Techno in my life time...With the biggest heart a person can have, those people are always so down but they seem to live the richest life a man can ever have. If you ever have a chance to see one of them, it will be impossible not to recognize the magnificent sel-destructiveness of their lifes that shines twice as bright, half as long.... from the concept designer of the Gorillaz character Robert Valley
Working at Sony Imageworks
Now is time to move and a new adventure will start.
The 7th of January I will start working at Sony Imageworks at the new film Smurf 2.
There are many reasons that really make me happy to join Imageworks: The quality of work that they have been producing in the past years is absolutely stellar. The project is quite electrifying because I grew up watching the Smurfs cartoons and to think that I might now be animating and be Papa Smurfs really makes my inner child jump with joy and, I am also quite excited about the move, because most of my dear animator friends are currently working in that area and I can not wait to catch up with them.
So, if I will not update with the lates videos is because I will be UBERfocused on work!
I wish everybody great holidays and I wish myself good luck for the next project!!!
The hobbit: an unexpected journey (hfr imax 3d) just changed film forever....
"Adam and dog" by Minkyu Lee
Adam and Dog won the Annie for "Best animated short" and it is currently nominated at the oscar for the same category. I am not surprised, this screams "QUALITY"
