Strap in tight, Lineboil readers. Here’s a short that requires your full attention – Mac ‘n’ Cheese. We teased this CG short last month, and now the full 3-minute piece from the Netherlands is available for viewing. This drug-addled romp through the desert was inspired by Team Fortress 2 and Meet Buck. The sequence starting at :45 seconds is particularly effective, but I enjoyed the whole damn thing. Amazing work from 4 students at the Utrecht School of Arts – Tom Hankins, Gijs van Kooten, Guido Puijk and Roy Nieterau.

Mac ‘n’ Cheese is a new student short directed by Tom Hankins, Gijs van Kooten, Guido Puijk and Roy Nieterau. The foursome are all students at the Utrecht School of Arts in the Netherlands, and their film focuses on an action-packed chase through the desert. Here’s a 15-second teaser that’s just enough to hook you in. We’ll keep you posted as the full 2-minute film is finally revealed.

Krab en Meeuw is an upcoming CG short created by 3 students at HKU (Hogeschool voor de Kunsten Utrecht), an art school in Utrecht. Percy Tienhoover, Jasper van Nieuwenhuizen and Vincent Bisschop directed this story about a crab who just wants to be left along, but he keeps getting interupted by his friend. It was produced in conjunction with Bureau Blits, and what I love is the CG work looks like it was produced with clay. Here’s the trailer:
