March 23, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The Price is an animated from Silver Fish Creative and Christopher Salmon. It was used to convince Neil Gaiman to grant Silver Fish the rights to create a 3D CG animated film of the short story “The Price”.

The Reward could spawn even more fantasy action

March 17, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I had all sorts of praise for The Reward. This is a short animation about two people, rivals at first, friends in the end, who find themselves on a long and dangerous journey. The animation appealed to many RPG classics with action, adventure and mystery. The team behind the Vimeo success have now turned to […]

Lost Doctor Who episode regenerates through animation

March 16, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The Reward

February 1, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The Reward is a short animation that comes out of Viborg, Denmark for a Bachelor project. It’s the story of two unlikely adventurers who find themselves on an unknown mission. I think gamers will recognise plenty of scenes and recall similar events from their own adventures. The question is; what’s the reward? This is a […]

January 3, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Shamoozal.com & GoNintendo.com have animated Link, from the Legend of Zelda, and his first ever boss fight. The animation is part of series 2 of “Read Only Memory”.

January 3, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Created by the Polish studio Platige Image, who worked on The Witcher 2 intro, Catzilla is designed to showcase their technical talent while not being boring. It succeeds.

December 21, 2012 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The Brotherhood Workshop have put together this fantastic little animation just in time for Christmas and The Hobbit movie hitting the big screens. Action kicks off with those pesky orcs hacking their way into Fangorn Forest. That’s where Treebeard lives and he’s not too happy to see the white hand. Any one spot Gollum?
