A short animation in which Cubert’s life is turned upside down. Until the event his life is defined by work, a perfect monotony and with no apparent escape. Things change. If you’re a fan of the film I recommend checking out the Lost Cubert blog for more information. This is the second year project of […]

Short film: Blue Sunday
Journalist Nick Spears gets a call from a man who claims a terrorist attack is due. Spears ropes in his editor and does what he can to get to the bottom of the mystery… but the answer is far more strange than first seems. Shot on a Canon C100, Canon 24-70mm and Canon 50mm, Blue […]
Short film: Zerogon
John Mattiuzzi and Joshua Planz’s film is described as “A lonely creature, on a lonely planet, abducted into the false allure of a computer generated world”. If you watch this surreal and rather purple sci-fi short you can leave a comment below to say whether you agree with that description or not. Ready to watch […]
Short film: Self-Asssembly
Creepy. Weird. This short film is a creepy and weird horror. Not in the mood for weird and creepy? Don’t watch this horror. Oh, so you watched? Grieving mother succumbs to strange internet ad and gets the modern equivalent of a changeling? The short film is certainly clever. The mix of black and white filming […]
Short film: Flow
Flow is a beautiful animation made by Mathijs Demaeght as a MA graduation project at RITS School of Arts. In the short film a girl in mourning makes an unexpected friend when a white wolf takes on a journey through a strange portal. Do you want to find something more to watch? This teleport link […]
Short film: CARL
CARL is a sci-fi animation in which gladiators are forced to fight to a bloody death in front of their new robot overlords. The tension comes to a head when CARL, the ultimate fighting champion, is pitched against a human slave who doesn’t fight back and then there’s a rescue attempt. I didn’t twig to […]
Short film: Home Sweet Home
Did you ever think a short animation about a house that gets fed up of suburbia and decide to escape would make you feel sad? I think Home Sweet Home stands a pretty good chance of making that happen. Some top quality animation with simple but effective storytelling from Pierre Clenet, Alejandro Diaz, Romain Mazevet, […]
Short film: Among the Stars
This sci-fi short is mainly shot to the camera as the captain of a spacecraft makes his last ever broadcast. I’d accuse him of being a drama lama but, to be fair, he’s in a tight bind. Despite the speech and the apparently simple cinematography, there is a lot going on. There are special effects […]
Short film: Arlo – The Assassin
This film had a budget of $300. Sure, I think you can see this isn’t funded by an angel investor or huge picture house but I’d be surprised if anyone watched this and took “Yeah, they only had $300 to spend” as their main takeaway. A more likely takeaway is; “Man, that Arlo is mean.” […]
Short film: Nightfall
A space epic created by Valentin Schwind and with a soundtrack by Ivelina Nedyalkova. The soundtrack is beautiful but to imagine that just one person using a bunch of computers (a workstation, a rendering machine, another in support, etc) is incredible. The space opera has a dark lord intent on winning the Queen’s heart – […]
