Symphony Of Two Minds – 3D Animated Short by Mecanique Generale


How do we choose to mix influences when dealing with a medium as new as CG animation ? From live action independent movies to Japanese anime, CG animation is still a new form of media trying to find its own style, to differentiate itself from traditional cartoon.
This short is a playful attempt at bringing those influences together, from the point of view of the characters themselves. Trough their interrogations, we ask ourselves if there is a different path to the way we treat animation today.

This is a short movie directed by Valere Amirault and done by the people at Mecanique Generale.

CACOPHONY by Melody Shih


“ Cacophony “ is a 2D animation and motion graphics video that combines illustrations, abstract textures and color to create patterns that visualize unseen daily sounds. Through the eyes and ears of a young girl, the viewer can escape the harsh sounds of the urban environment and find solace in a serene inner world.

We are surrounding by too much information and noises sometimes we feel overloaded.
But don’t lose your inner peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset. Find balance in life and just moving on!

馬戲團

詞:林意倩
曲:林意倩

淚水在轉圈圈呀
傷口在重複奔馳那
一圈一圈的火焰
我離開地面
飛躍在黑白的空間

數不盡的歡呼
聽覺卻模糊
表情看似有點那麼痛苦
我穿著小丑衣服
背著超載的束縛
表演著高難度
被奴役的技術

被奴役 被奴役
哎呀呀呀 哎呀阿

NO FREEDOM LIKE A PRISON
MAGIC CIRCUS COMES FROM A SIMPLE PURPOSE
被鋼索鍊住的腿
扭曲成你的臉
撕下了這張臉
紅色的面具消失不見
你看見了嗎 你看見了嗎
OHOHOH

哎呀 哎呀 哎呀 哎呀
MAGIC CIRCUS MAGIC CIRCUS NO FREEDOM

Portrait of an Artist | Guido van Helten by Selina Miles


In August 2015, film director Selina Miles travelled with artist Guido van Helten to Akureyri – a town on the north coast of Iceland, to produce a very unique work. This 6-minute film documents their journey, and offers insight into the unique personality of one of Australia’s most sought after street artists.

This project was a self initiated collaboration between Selina Miles and Guido van Helten, who both sought to use their respective practices to delve deeper into the wonderful and unique culture of Iceland.

Thanks go to Akureyrarstofa (Akureyri Cultural Office) for facilitating the project. http://ift.tt/14QYdnW
