  La Chaussettologie - Challenge Your World

  (Flash)
  [ 2:20 - from Vimeo ]

  From the video challenge "inspiration for a better world," I found this funny animation where blue balls try to find a way to make the world a better place. It's a tough decision, but for the planet they'll do anything. This is just one example from the challenge where creativity is the key to success for the participants and, quite possibly, for our planet. view

  Insert Coin

  
  (Cartoon / Traditional)
  [ 1:05 - from YouTube ]

  In the spirit of the the 8bit video games of the 80s, this animated short puts a disturbing twist on pumping quarters in a slot for some fun digi action.  Imagine what the change machines look like up there? view

  MOTOR / Ambient Reel

  (3D, Experimental)
  [ 3:04 - from Vimeo ]

  I love this stuff. Part 3D animation, part tone poem, and all awesome, artist Ku-Schneider's thesis combines simple geometry with roving light patterns and an expansive sense of space. The moody dream score by Alva Noto & Ryuichi Sakamoto is the perfect finishing touch. view

  Afterworld: Purgatory

  (Flash)
  [ 2:50 - from MySpace ]

  I'm always on the lookout for gems and break out web series that are helping to shape and define the industry. And though 'Afterworld' launched over 2 years ago, it is still one of the best examples of digital storytelling because it has the power to captivate viewers through short 3-minute webisodes. Beautifully narrated with vivid computer animation, it follows the path of Russell Shoemaker, one of the only survivors of 'the fall'. As suspenseful as it is intriguing, unexpected twists and turns will leave you on the edge of your seat, anxious with anticipation.  view

  Quants

  (Experimental)
  [ 1:25 - from Vimeo ]

  This short clip about mathematics and financing becomes more interesting with every passing second, even if you're not a master of Wall Street. view

  Choros

  (Experimental, Time-lapse)
  [ 12:58 - from Vimeo ]

  As a single dancer multiplies before your eyes, each of her new movements form intricate patterns with the last. Set to a hypnotic score by Steve Reich, filmmakers Michael Langan and Terah Maher employ new technologies to achieve the cinematic equivalent of a multiple exposure. This is a positively ephemeral study of motion! view

  Galileo

  (Flash)
  [ 4:34 - from Vimeo ]

  Beautifully flash-animated depiction of Galileo in his quest to invent an operable flying machine to be like the butterflies. The film takes some poetic license, but it's a sweet story behind the man who is often dubbed the 'father of modern science.' view
