Short film: It’s Payback Time

September 15, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This short film was created by the British TV station Channel 4. It’s gone viral with more than 2 million views and part of the attraction is the surprise twist. The grimy world in this animation is brought to life wonderfully in the animation. The poor people seem so terrorised and innocent. Here are some […]

Short film: Space Cat Hob

September 11, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

This animation took two years to make. The team had no money. The result is a rich sci-fi filled with action, drama and surprises. What do you think? Does it teach you to trust cute things but be cautious of ugly things? Or perhaps it suggests to you that cat warriors would be too easily […]

Nurse Baymax is dork cute

September 6, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

We’ve discussed how Disney’s Big Hero 6 is likely to differ from the comic book series. All that’s left to do is sit back and enjoy the marketing before the animation opens.

Gandalf was smart enough to avoid a doomed Giant Eagle flight into Mordor

August 28, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s an old gamers joke. Let’s assume none of the PCs ran off with the ring the very second it was discovered. What would happen next? The chances are someone would want to use the Giant Eagles to fly into Mordor, fly over Mount Doom and drop that pesky ring into the lava. Problem solved? […]

Proof of concept: The Animated Adventures of Doctor Who

August 18, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

When I first saw this unofficial animation I wondered how the BBC would react. Now we know. The Official Doctor Who has shared the animation. Created by Stephen Byrne the short animation images what a cartoon Doctor Who might be like. Rather nicely Byrne uses the 12th Doctor for his hero. This isn’t the Oncoming […]

Short film: Orbitas

August 15, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

http://vimeo.com/67596206 Now and then Geek Native will bring you a love story. In Orbitas two sides are busy destroying the planet. We’ve seen this before. Nukes, propaganda and badly staffed space stations. Over time, though, the two astronauts from the rival sides begin to grow fond of one another. The animation is by Jaime Maestro […]

Short film: The Collector’s Gift

August 9, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A modern day fairytail about a young girl who stumbles across a much needed way to create a new world. “The Collector’s Gift” is a Master Thesis from USC student Ryan Kravetz. It has gone on to win a whole host of awards. Kravetz will likely go on to great things to and you can […]

Short film: A-Hole in Time

July 20, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

You should worry about a hole in time. You should also worry when a science team sends an a-hole back in time too. A-holes seem most likely to create paradoxes that’ll confuse the braincells. You could even say they had it coming. Use this teleport link to jump to a randomly selected short film.

This is a thing: Batmetal

July 7, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s Batman meets Metal. In particular, this is ArhyBES’s take of Dethklok’s Face Fisted. Their “new” band is called Children of Batman and this remake is called Batface. You might not want to listen to this at work because, well, metal. And swearing. I like the arrangement of Red Hood, Robin and then Nightwing across […]
