Every year, I’m more and more impressed with the work from students at Ringling College of Art + Design. Take dilla, a CG short directed by Mike Klim, Stanley Moore, Dominic Pallotta and Mikey Sauls. Strong design, tight timing, crisp acting, smart use of color and camera – and a fairly entertaining story. It’s all pantomime too, which is hard to pull off. Not surprisingly, one of the directors, Mikey Sauls, was selected to participate in this summer’s Pixar Animation program.
