Red Rabbit, Short by Egmont Mayer.

Red Rabbit from Egmont Mayer on Vimeo.



Looks like a lot of work went into producing this short, well worth watching with some some really nice touches

George Longo site - nice inFamous promo.

















This chap's worked on an interesting trailer for the game inFamous - nicely edited cuts from game footage into comic cells.

Francesco's Reel with Subtitles!



This may help us learn more Italian than the kind of potty-mouth stuff he teaches us at work... :)

The Cat's Meow



I quite like this one, from a Ringling student. Ricky - you were doing something with a cat, thought you might be interested!

This Side Up



The character has something of the style of Up's Carl Fredicksen, with his chunky square fingers. Nicely paced and an interesting well executed idea...

Alarm, short film by Mesai



I sent this round last week but worth posting here for reference - great lighting, rendering and style to this short (...well, at 8 mins, perhaps more a mini-feature!) I'm still not sure I agree with the comments about the pacing, but it's a matter of opinion!

Evynd Earle & Open Season

















Watching Sony's Open Season again last night, and reading the accompanying art book, several reverences are made to the paintings of Evind Earle, an American artist who worked on a lot of early Disney films. Well worth a some further research...
