Superhero Week: What if Superman was adopted by the Waynes
Comic books aren’t shy of doing “What if…” as a scenario. Here’s one of my favourites. What if Superman was adopted by the Waynes and ended up taking the place of Batman. You’d have a super powered crime fighter with Batman’s outlook on life. Would it work? Here’s Cartoon Hooligan’s take on it. This is […]
Superhero Week: How to be a Supervillain
This post is not just part of Superhero Week. It’s also part of Geek Native’s Short Film series. This charming short project sprang from the mind of Alkanoids. 7 illustrators and 7 animators had just 2 days to get the job done. That’s why each of the segments had their own style. Despite how different […]
Everything To Me is out of this world
This is the official music video for Calvin Cardioid’s “Everything to Me”. It’s featured here on Geek Native for the sci-fi animation care of Phillipp Feigenbutz. The animation uses markerless motion capture from iPi Soft. Pretty neat stuff.
Short film: Two Worlds
The story here, according to Andy Lefton, is that opposites attract. The two characters featured are certainly opposite in many ways but both quite charming in their own right. The catch? They’re also both in dire straight in this short, 3D animated, sci-fi adventure. Hop onto this random teleport link to load up another short […]

Short film: Cloudrise
Set in a fantasy world which extends above and below the clouds, Cloudrise is a gorgeously painted animation. The drama picks up as two lovers struggle against the odds.

Short film: 1900-2000
A short animation in French. A couple have to persuade a theatre owner to let them run their “time travel” show in which they preview what the world in the Year 2000 will be like.

Short film: Skyborn
Jamie Stone’s Skyborn is set in a foggy post-apocalyptic world. It begins with some great animation and then cuts to a surprisingly emotional film. Gideon is determined that his son will escape the fog but Blue doesn’t have faith in the flying machine they’ve built. So Blue, the son, sets about a dangerous attempt to […]
