“A cheeky song about a naughty topic visually depicted within a parody of a 70s childhood classic.”
Yeah, those are dicks. So you have an idea what you might be in for when you click that playhead button.
Yannick Puig created this animated video for the band Kwoon several months ago that I somehow missed. It’s a beautiful piece of animation that works perfectly with the music track and I was happy to stumble upon it at Pasa La Vida.
‘Second Wind’ is an animated short produced as a school project by Ian Worrel. He produced the short by using a “straight pencil and paper for the man and cat line animation. colored in photoshop, composited in after effects onto backgrounds constructed in photoshop out of various pieces of media (pen/ink, pencil, paint, photos, etc.”
“Meet Meline tells the story of a little girl whose curiosity is sparked by a mysterious creature as she plays in her grandparents’ barn.”
The film was created with no budget by by Virginie Goyons and Sebastien Laban (sound design by Cedric Denooz and music by Guillaume Roussel).
You can get more information about the film at the official Meet Meline website.
Cartoonist Ira Marcks collaborated with Vimeo founder Jake Lodwick to produce this experimental 45 minute animation.
It really isn’t animation at all but a long continuous scroll of a single massive illustration. Ira Marcks has named it the Illustrative Score.
The artists recommend viewing fullscreen, with headphones on, the lights off while seated comfortably.
Music by The Few Moments.

“1925 (aka Hell) is one of two animation loops directed by Max Hattler, inspired by the work of French outsider artist Augustin Lesage. 1925 is based on Lesage’s painting ‘A symbolic Composition of the Spiritual World’ from 1925.”
This is the promised followup to 1923 (aka Heaven) by Max Hattler several weeks back. Both films were created over the course of 5 days in February of 2010 with students at The Animation Workshop in Viborg, Denmark.
This 10th anniversary self promotional animation for Record Makers is straight up bootylicious. It’s an adjective that so rarely applies but in this case it is positively apropos.
There are some beautiful bits happening in this experimental short film by Sean Vicary.
Description:
“The coastal landscape of West Wales provides the setting for this short film. Animation,music and photography are juxtaposed in order to explore the liminal space between land and sea.
The film has evolved from an original piece produced as part of an audio-visual performance with the composer Tom Middleton at the National Film Theatre, London.”
Motion and interactive designer Johannes Timpernagel has kept him self busy, flexing his creative muscles in the last few months by generating some great experimental animations. You can view them all via his Vimeo page.
Sorry for the copy and pasting but sometimes it just doesn’t make sense to rewrite something that the creative author obviously spent so much time putting together. Better left to their own words on this one. Amazing little video:
“1923 is one of two new animation loops directed by Max Hattler, inspired by the work of French outsider artist Augustin Lesage. 1923 is based on Lesage’s painting ‘A symbolic Composition of the Spiritual World’ from 1923.
The second loop, 1925, is based on Lesage’s painting ‘A symbolic Composition of the Spiritual World’ from 1925. It will be available soon.
The films were created during 5 days in February 2010 with animators and CG artists at The Animation Workshop in Viborg, Denmark.”

The music for this short film was made entirely from sounds recorded from a collection of antique cameras. The imagery is comprised of over six thousand still photos shot and edited together via stop motion animation.
Here is a very well executed short film (very short) featuring some equally well executed storytelling from the mind of Lucas Zanotto.

This little video by Tapebox, a London-based animation duo comprised of Dan Hayhurst (audio) and Reuben Sutherland (visual) kind of tripped me out. I love the throwback reference to the zoetrope. I had to make one of those in college. Cool work indeed.
Holke79 has updated with a new reel that is serving as a temporary holder until he launches a new site. Site or not the reel is worth watching and jam packed with some great motion work.
This is from Madder Mortem’s forthcoming release ‘Where Dream & Day Collide’, coming May 10th, 2010. There is some amazing 3D animation going on here not to mention some artfully crafted matte painting.

“Light and dark, noise and calm, beauty, decay, pain and hope–these are the shattering contrasts that propel our lives ahead in the boundless, throbbing river of existence. None of us knows what the next moment will bring, the raptures and terrifying discoveries born with every choice. And yet, in the alternation of day and night, in the ebb and tide of the oceans, in the constant expansion and quiet contraction of our lungs in and out with each breath–we know our journey is not random chaos but a journey where every shouting supernova, every trembling cell, returns to the one perfect mystery from which we all come and go.Instead, in the rotation of the stars, planets, seasons, increase, loss, sadness, joy, struggle, surrender– there is a cosmic beauty, a unity and purpose.”
