Out of a Forest

I find this wonderful animation Directed by Tobias Gundorff Boesen highly inspirational.

The story is wonderful, with an awesome twist at the ending, with the lovely song ‘Slow Show’ by The National complimenting it quite nicely. There’s an awesome blog, documenting the process, from doing the models to the shooting, and tests on their blog;

‘The Passenger’, ‘French roast’ and ‘Sound of Silent’

Hello.

I’ve been following a wee animated film on the web for a little while now, and I’ve just realised that it’s been released! This beautiful, and funny film is called ‘The Passenger’ – created by Chris Jones.

Everything about this film is just awsome. The animation is solid, the camera work is amazing, great lighting and textures – and the audio is fantastic! He’s got an awesome website, where you can see some really cool ‘making of’s’ (this film took him 8 years to make!);

The Passenger

Seriously awesome film.

Another film I came across this week – and highly enjoyed the simplicity of it was ‘French roast’

Check them out folks!

As for me – in the New Year, production will start back on my short film ‘Sound of Silent’, and this is where I’ll be uploading all my tests, drawings – anything related to the film.

Just a ‘sneak peek’ of what the set used to look like for you all;

Can’t wait to get back into animating my film – it’s been a wee while.
