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.
A fuzzy bachelor has engineered his wacky morning routine with robotic precision.

“ 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!

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

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
