This sweet little video was created by Owen Gatley and Luke Jinks. “It’s loosely based on the scientific recording of life’s great species. And how this has given us clues that piece together, for us to discover the secrets of the evolution and diversity of life on Earth.”
Scott Coello somehow managed to make a dog fart lyrical and even beautiful. To add to the irony, he accomplished this by animating bits of garbage and found objects. The animation is dedicated to his dog who recent lost her lady bits (as he puts it).
This is a little personal project from animator Paul Rayment, and it is pretty awesome.
Pigeon Pilfer from Michael Stevenson on Vimeo.
Pigeon Pilfer is the senior of from Michael Stevenson as a part of his studies at San Francisco State University. “It was completed in four months with sixty pounds of clay, a digital SLR camera, and one tiny hot room.”
Bam Studio sent this experimental animation video to me today and I was impressed on several levels. It’s an interesting bit of animation in terms of what is happening, but it is equally inspiring for the imaginative renderings of the figures. There is a vintage 70’s throwback feel in the execution that is just really fun to look at. I’ve got nothing but love for the Brasileiros.
A whole lot of credits:

Scott K Macdonald has some really fun illustration work, and a lot of it in his Flickr-folio. You can also visit his personal website here. Scott received his degree in Graphic Design from the NSCC, Marconi Campus in 2000. He also received another degree in Digital Animation from the NSCC, Truro Campus in 2002. Scott currently lives in Vancouver, BC where he works as a freelance animator and illustrator.
These three darkly cynical viral films were created in collaboration by Ministry of Sound’s MSHK, illustrator Neal Murren (of Breed London) and brought to life by Mainframe to promote Tomas, the new book by Ministry of Sound co-founder James Palumbo.
Motionographer has a great Q&A about the work.
This is radical. It starts off slow but give it a chance because once it gets going you have to find something to hold onto. Awesome. Be sure to click the link at the end of the details below to check out more of Musclebeaver’s work. They rock.
Details:
This animation we did was planned and animated for the prologue of a documentary.
(That explains the absurd, unfinished seeming, ending.That is where the actual documentary starts…. )
The briefing was to show an evolution of computer games.
The documentary itself is about different people, based here in germany, showing their everyday life, and their addiction to the same specific, famous MMORPG (massive multiplayer online role playing game):”Wo..”
Every game character in this prologue was reinterpreted, redrawn (…one pixel at a time), and animated frame by frame.

Really interesting but quick little diddy from the mad minds behind Universal Everything. I am not entirely sure what this is for but the title says something about ’42 Below Vodka / China’. Radical nonetheless.
“Machu Picchu Post is a short 3D film made at Supinfocom Arles in 2008 by Clement Crocq, Margaux Durand-Rival and Nicolas Novali.
This is the story of the unexpected meeting between a young peruvian boy living with his lama and a pilot from the airmail flying above the boy’s house.”
The style and animation in this short film is really expertly executed. You can learn a little more about the project here.
Here is a very strange but fascinating little piece of art from the mind of Zhivko Dimitrov. I am not entirely sure what to make of it other than the fact that it is uniquely psychedelic and beautiful to watch.
Motion Designer, Raffi Simonian has launched a new web presence featuring some really beautiful and sleek motion/animation work. I really like his website as well. It is very simple and highly functional, utilizing animated gifs as thumbmails, which is really clever in terms of fast load time and quick preview playback. It’s a smart idea featuring some smart work.
The might motion powerhouse Stardust has updated with a new website and reel for 2009. They remain one of the best in the business.
Ken Edge has launched a new website full of really great examples of motion graphics and animation. Apparently, he ‘really likes television’. Don’t we all?
Click 3X launches a new website complete with a fancy-pants video player (minus a timeline scrubber [sorry, my only beef]). The site isn’t really the hero though, the work is. They have some amazing examples of animation, CGI effects and motion graphics in their ever-growing portfolio. Browsing through their projects is just good fun.
