  • La Queue de la Souris – A Mouse’s Tale

    I found this… seems to be pretty old considering this YouTube upload, but the animation style is still nifty. The Vimeo version doesn’t have a logo and is much MUCH crisper. I don’t know who did the animation though.

  • The Proof that We Are Soulmates by Emanuele Colombo

    This is… sorta like a romantic version of infographics, right? xD

  • SubWars by SeanSoong

    I don’t think I’ve been this excited about an animated short for a while~~~ it’s got great style, flow, pizzazz — great for those who love animation, those who love Star Wars… and it’s also very relatable for those people who are familiar with riding on a subway (or any public transportation!).

    This short animation, besides being super entertaining with its stylish violence, it’s also part PSA~ teaching you to always give your seat to the elderly!

  • Shine a Light for Nature by Lichtfaktor

    I think time-lapse videos have been in the decline for the past year — it was so hip to do time-lapse back in 2009/2010 and tons of them popped up in Vimeo and even on TV. Alas~

    There’s just something very beautiful about light painting… so combining the two deserves its post ;P

  • Kalle Mattson – Thick as Thieves

    Besides the style, which I love, I’m totally geeking out because it contains the evolution (and history) of the world. How many of these can you get made??? Quite educational, if I may say so~

  • Good Books Great Writers Series

    This is amazingly good-looking animation. I’m rather surprised I didn’t see it any other place than Weibo, unless there was and I wasn’t paying attention being away during the month of March and all. xD

  • Where are new animators going?

    I’m not going to be showing anything in particular or talk about anything in particular, but I gotta mention that this post is a bit NSFW~ Just because I’m going to be dealing with porn, or more specifically animated porn… which some call Hentai — but really, Hentai would be the anime version, right?

    ANYWAY.

    I’ve seen a couple of Blue films from a documentary — I really had no idea erotic films went that far back in film history, but it figures. Since then, I’ve always had a fascination with some of the “vintage” animated shorts I’ve run into about the subject. There many of them, of the German kind… sometimes Scandinavian, or Eastern European ones. There are many that re-work some fairy tales — the few that I’ve seen were Snow White, and there also was Hansel & Gretel. Many of them feature castle types, which I guess can be explained from the shape of castles… they lend itself to the topic. LOL

    Then, I ran into this clip:

  • Hudson – Against the Grain by Dropbear

    Though this one came first, I wanted to say this…

    “First it was books at a bookstore, now it’s pencils and color pencils~”

  • The Joy of Books

    I’m not much of a book reader, but my god. This is awesome.
