The Beatles : Rock Band Animated Trailer

(Yes, I know it's been out for years.)  This particular animated trailer is as exciting as any animated short I've seen in a while, so I thought I'd revisit it. See a short "making of" video below.

End of File.

It does not happen often, still sometimes one thing or another happens and I lose power on my computer in the middle of painting.

Like tonight.

Oh, The file icon is still there, but when I try to open it I get an "unexpected end-of-file" message.

The art I worked so hard on, simply ceases to exist. As though it were one of the paintings I have worked on in my dreams. (Yes, there have been many of those as well.)

Alma

A scary little "Twilight Zone" sort of short film. Perfect for the month of October. Scary,... like a doll's eyes.

Cat says NO! And NO! Means NO!

It would have to be very strange for me to post a cat video. Voice exactly like a human child. The video however appears to be from Russia, so shouldn't it be Nyet!?

The Great Cognito

Long before computers allowed us to morph everything, claymation animator Will Vinton was producing cool shorts like this one with painstaking frame by frame stop motion. Vinton and his studio would later go on to create the California Raisin commercials, and "The Noid" for Domino's Pizza.

He later created several TV specials, and contributed to Michael Jackson's "Captain EO" and "Moonwalker." Now-a-days this sort of short would be done with 3d software. Back in the 70's it was brute force animation with just clay and a camera, and a lot of patience.

Cyriak is an amazing animator. (Probably the illegitimate son of Terri Gilliam.)
