PIGEON: IMPOSSIBLE

Did you ever wonder why you shouldn’t give guns and other dangerous weapons to birds? Next time you eat a bagel, think twice before feeding flying friends — at least if you happen to have any nuclear bombs within your reach.

We think this has a bit of feel like a Pixar picture in progress.

Styles Of Animation #11: Dancing Statues!

Where does art come from?  Why the art that came before it, of course!  We see something, and are inspired by it.  We customize it.  We do a mod.  We build on the work that got their earlier.

Making New Stuff Out Of Their Old Stuff: Upular

This music was composed using chords, bass notes, & vocal samples from one very excellent movie. Nothing like borrowing from a friend to make something new.

Styles of Animation #7: Salt Drawing

Is salt that much different than sand? Aleksandra Korejwo can answer that for you. In follow up to yesterdays excursion into the sand bowl, we bring you this for those noses with a different taste.

Although the description says that this one is band to sand:

One of the things I like most about this type of animation, is how it demonstrates how many different things are going on at once. You can see a bit of story, there is color and shape and how they both mix, and then there is the element of time and how the other elements communicate with it, changing over the course of the animation.

This site could not have been built without the help and insight of Michael Morgenstern. My thanks go out to him.

Help save indie film and give this guy a job in web design or film!
