  Vincent

  (Claymation, Experimental)
  [ 6:25 - from YouTube ]

  Vincent Malloy is a young boy who fantasizes about being Vincent Price...instead of inhabiting the loathsome, sunny existence with which he's been cursed. One of Tim Burton's first stop-motion films (created while he was working for Disney), "Vincent" is a delightful sneak peek at the origins of the director's signature style and penchant for the heart-warming macabre. view

  Alex Gopher - The Child

  
  (Experimental)
  [ 3:12 - from YouTube ]

  Have you seen a kinetic text video? Alex Gopher is a great DJ and one of the first artists using this technique in a music video, but as you can see, this is not typical typo animation... this is a whole New York City made of words, including characters with personality, and a story to follow. A mastermind video, if you like graphic design and animation this is a must see. view

  Vegeterrible

  (Cartoon / Traditional)
  [ 2:57 - from Vimeo ]

  A rotten avocado ruins a vegetable fiesta and starts devouring everything; one little cherry tomato must fend for its life. Yes, it's a strange premise, but this bright, colorful animated short is fun and clever, with a nice twist at the end. view

  Azureus Rising - Proof of Concept

  (3D)
  [ 5:37 - from YouTube ]

  This short film is amazing.  No motion capture was used, which makes this animation even more impressive.  Apparently this is the first part of a trilogy, so I can't wait to see what comes next. view

  There She Is!!: Cake Dance

  (Flash)
  [ 4:09 - from YouTube ]

  From SamBakZa (Korean: 삼박자) comes the addictive Flash animation series about a love at-first-sight story between a rabbit and cat. The Korean animator Amalloc uses an excellent musical track and hilarious animation sequences to tell the story (sans words) of an obsessive bunny with a passionate crush on a poor kitty. At first it seems like the cutesy-cuddly techno version of Fatal Attraction that only a Korean mind could imagine, where Glenn Close becomes Hello Kitty. But over time, it becomes a more complex story exploring the problems of interracial marriage. Seriously. As of January 2009, the five episodes of the series have been viewed over 8.5 million times on the Newgrounds site. view

  JUSTICE: D.A.N.C.E.

  (Experimental)
  [ 3:08 - from MySpace ]

  Justice is a French electronic band, and don't let that steer you away. I am not a techno fan but I like quite a few of their tunes. This music video superimposes moving designs on shirts. That's it. And that's why this is my favorite music video of this millenium. By the way, if you do enough googling you can actually find some of the shirts featured here. view

  Give Up Yer Aul Sins - Story of Saint Patrick

  (Cartoon / Traditional)
  [ 4:31 - from YouTube ]

  In honor of my birthday – on which day last year this video was posted – and in honor of me being Irish and all, here’s one of an Oscar-nominated series of animated shorts from Brown Bag films called “Give Up Yer Aul Sins,” in which pictures are put to stories told by Irish schoolchildren in the 1960s. In this case, it’s the tale of Ireland’s patron saint, who was not Irish (and the snakes, sadly, do not come up).  view

  He's Barack Obama

  (Cartoon / Traditional, Experimental)
  [ 3:11 - from JibJab ]

  Last week Barack Obama watched with amusement as JibJab debuted this video at the 65th Annual Radio and Television Correspondents Dinner. view
