Hand: Jiri Trnka
Trnka is another master who inspires me a lot. I have not put any of his films here yet, here is his 1965 creation titled "hand"
The Flying Man: George Dunning
Simple forms in motion, coming togather to tell a tale. This film from 1962 demostrates what 3d animation is still not capable of doing.
Repete: Michaela Pavlatova
Another film of Michaela Pavlatova that went on to win numourous awards when it was released in 1995.
Bars & Tones: André F. Chocron
Done entirely in FCP, something Mclaren would have tried if he had access to the tools of today.
Un jour: Marie Paccou
One day, a man entered my belly." "The next day, since he was still there, I realized that I would have to get used to him." "Our Story" That is the subtitled English text that begins Marie Paccou's short film, Un Jour. There's nothing like grabbing your attention right at the start! As the camera trucks out, sure enough, there is a short little guy sticking out of the lady's stomach with his legs and feet protruding from her back. The woman does get used to her visitor, and so begins this film about their relationship.
Out of Ashes: Sharlene Wallis
Another great student film.
Professor Dan Petory’s Blues: Studio 4C
Another intersting film from Studio 4C.
Giselle Kerozene: Jan Kounen
This 1989 film shows amazing stop motion animation of three broom-flying transvestite witches.
Le Jardin: Marie Paccou
There is something in this film that apeals to me.
Unfaithful Portrait : Ewa Bibanska
Ewa Bibanska was born in 1955, was a Graduate of Professor Daniel Szczechura's Animated Film Workshop at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw.
Chromophobia: Raoul Servais
A kids story about authoritarianism in which the invading grey forces of control, outlaw all colour in a small town. A child, artist, and a jester set in wheels an inevitable rainbow revolution. Though based on childhood experience of Nazi occupation, Chromophobia is prescient of the psychedelic youth-quake of 68-69.
Marvin Digs: Ralph Bakshi
Nostalgia!!!
