  Saxophony

  (Stop Motion)
  [ 2:20 - from Vimeo ]

  This one is for fans of Philip Glass. Be warned, depending on your point of view, it can either be brilliant or intolerably annoying. Through the powers of editing, a few shots of an out of tune saxophone transform into a full blown minimalist composition. Filmmaker Aaron Valdez builds it before your eyes, and the results are impressive. view

  Timescapes Timelapse: Mountain Light

  (Time-lapse)
  [ 2:37 - from YouTube ]

  It took a lot of pictures to make this beautiful video of Californian nature. Created by a motion-picture company dedicaded to night timelapse, this is just a clip from a short film - but this sneak preview gives us an idea of how extraordinary the end result must be. view

  Obamourage: Rough In The Buff

  (Experimental)
  [ 2:12 - from Atom ]

  Aside from a twisted version of Tiger Woods' new Nike commercial, you'll get your first (and possibly only chance) to check out Sarah Palin in the shower... with Joe Biden... as he drops F-bombs... while they fly on Air Force One... with President Barack Obama.  Conan O'Brien even makes a surprise appearance - TBS or BUST! view

  AXA Evolution

  (3D)
  [ 1:00 - from Vimeo ]

  One of the most important inventions in the history of our species was the wheel; next was fire, then the printing press, the air plane, and so on... We once had nothing, but our technology has made us powerful. Our evolution and survival depends on what we can imagine and create. This is what AXA demonstrates in this great origami commercial, in which man transforms into important tools we use everyday. view

  Pixels

  (3D)
  [ 2:32 - from Daily Motion ]

  Patrick Jean created this unbelievably entertaining short which finally answers the age-old question: what would happen if 80's video game characters attacked New York City? Extremely well made, with better effects than many overblown Hollywood blockbusters. view

  Star Wars Gangsta Rap: Chronicles

  (Cartoon / Traditional)
  [ 3:57 - from Atom ]

  Do you think when George Lucas created Star Wars he had any idea how big it would become?  Yoda makes a good point in this video when he says, "Star Wars fans never die, they just multiply."  This rap is for the ever-growing Star Wars fan base.  Oh, and Yoda is wrong about one thing - you are going to die, even if you're a Star Wars fan.  Sorry. view

  Candle

  (Experimental)
  [ 1:10 - from Vimeo ]

  Animator Evelien Lohbeck brings her illustrations to life in mind-bending ways. Give it a watch. I still can't figure out how it's done.  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
