posted by Aaron

Here’s an intriguing trailer – it’s for Alex Sherwood’s graduation film from the Irish School of Animation. His short is titled The Apple Tree. It’s NSFW, but in what appears to be a very innocent way. We’ll keep you updated when the full film is available for viewing.

Chester Creates Mad Dogs and Englishmen


posted by Aaron

Daniel Chester directed this short, titled Mad Dogs and Englishmen, while studying at the Royal College of Art. It’s very subtle storytelling that almost feels a bit like documentary animation. Chester had help on the animation from Ifor Ashton, Claire Pinegar, Peter J. Laugesen and Julia Pott.

Gobelins Students Let the Fur Fly


posted by Aaron

This elaborate short below, titled Fur, was directed by De François Barreau, Marion Delannoy, Claire Fauvel, Rachid Guendouze, Vincent Nghiem and Benoit Tranchet, all students at Gobelins in Paris. We meet a wolf man who rises up against the segregation that separates him from mankind. Perhaps if there is one knock against the film is the lack of a twist or a clever end. It’s an enjoyable reveal, but not satisfying. One stylistic element that I’d like to point out is the fluid shape that the town’s guards take during their chase of the wolf.
