Brilliant Short Films

Here's some superbly constructed short films.

Massive and brilliant Aardman stop motion.



I have problems calling this one a STORY, cause its not. It is about surface level IMAGE. Much like  aTransformers movie. No story, pretty to look at. It is a beautiful, inspiring use of stop motion.



In terms of storytelling, this is a very short tradegy.



This video shows these people have watched Stuart Blackton! Look at how similar his film in the early 20th century is to this one!



Here's his original again.



There's madness going on here. Bits of movies which you can link to further. Love the delivery.



There is a story in here somewhere, however there is probably more in spectacle than anything. Simple, interesting technique though.



Goodness me, it is hard to find good stop motion that also tells a story. Maybe animators don't care as much as script writers! This lego one is intended to sell, but there is no story.









Stay with this one. It's slow to begin with. It gets good and then something is missing towards the end. Well, it was for me. More art than story.



Wonderful stylistic deeply rooted images. Don't search for a story, its buried too deep under the gorgeous visuals.



Lovely use of stop motion with just objects a little bit of people. The colour is beautiful, every shot is treated with care and attention. Good song too.






So, how is this done, this minaturisation?




Lovely.
