Watch through the first few seconds of “what’s going on…” and you’ll soon find yourself in a pretty intense animation. Hand drawn and wonderfully produced by Ornana Films. Confusion Through Sand manages to ramp up the tempo with just a few sounds and powerful storytelling. This is one of those animations that you’ll find yourself […]
Short film: Lost Cubert

Flow is a beautiful animation made by Mathijs Demaeght as a MA graduation project at RITS School of Arts. In the short film a girl in mourning makes an unexpected friend when a white wolf takes on a journey through a strange portal. Do you want to find something more to watch? This teleport link […]
Short film: Home Sweet Home
Did you ever think a short animation about a house that gets fed up of suburbia and decide to escape would make you feel sad? I think Home Sweet Home stands a pretty good chance of making that happen. Some top quality animation with simple but effective storytelling from Pierre Clenet, Alejandro Diaz, Romain Mazevet, […]

Short film: Crayon Dragon
This is an oldie but a goodie. Animated by Toniko Pantoja Crayon Dragon is the story of a young woman who is commissioned to paint over an old mural. If she follows through she’ll cover over an old picture of a fat dragon. I think this is exactly the sort of video you can watch […]
Short film: Mean Teddies
There’s lots of love about Tyler Novo’s Mean Teddies In this short animation we deal with one fierce looking bear. I’m reminded of an adventurer; he’s kitted out for war but fighting to keep the monsters at bay. This bear takes no prisoners. Why? He’s a little boy to protect. He has someone to keep […]
Short film: A Kiss From Tokyo
This short animation plays out like a 70s spy movie or perhaps the opening credits to a 70s spy movie. Today the press is all abuzz with news of Spectre, the 24th James Bond movie, and so it feels appropriate to share. A Kiss From Tokyo was directed by Kevin Dart and Stephane Coedel. Want […]
