Animated haiku short film.

Scarecrow in a characteristic Polish landscape as a witness to the dramatic events of Polish history. World wars, changes in socio-political systems, civilizational transformations, national dramas - in this animated film take the symbolic form of costumes. Zygmunt Konieczny's dramatic music adds expression to Krzysztof Kiwerski's visual vision.

From a sea full of icebergs tinkling rising green hills. Winding roads and a forest of scaffolding overgrow the virgin landscape. There stands the city, dark and unapproachable. But when night falls and the lights turn on, the water returns. Manufacturability is overtaken by transformation.

This piece addresses the astonishing rate of transformation in the contemporary Chinese cityscape, presenting an ironic vision of Chinese architecture out of control. I have taken buildings of the most well known architectural projects from the Beijing skyscape and reconstructed them so they become an undoable spectacle. The Chinese Government is deliberately producing awe-inspiring architecture to persuade and convince foreign observers of their hyper-modernist perspective. More importantly, while visiting Beijing it became evident that the Communist Party is also deliberately using architecture to persuade and convince their national audience of the Party’s insightful perspective on their own future.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarves is considered by many to be the best fairy tale of all.

The story has many lessons, the most important of which is that goodness always wins.

Yves Netzhammer creates his world entirely on the computer. In Furniture of Proportions he takes his viewers along for a story that is not easy to describe. He shows us how the hierarchy on which we have based our world view, where the human race has imposed its superiority on other plants and animals, is based on chance. Things could be different. He shows us how.

A naughty and raunchy revelation found in Great Aunt Nell's closet...

The beginning of frame is similar to a drive through the city: "Let´s go for a ride," high energy. The camera pans swiftly from left to right, looking at what´s going on. The beat sets the tempo. The car´s put into gear: Take-off. The story plays out in the viewers´ head rather than in front of their eyes. [n:ja] shows nothing more than pure motion along spatial coordinates which is driven by Radian´s pulsing soundtrack. So much "reality" – in other words details, color and representation – has been removed from the original views of this ride that solely remnants and a basic structure comprise the video image. In the first "shot" we seem to recognize passers-by hurrying in different directions. The point-of-view moves in the opposite direction, following individuals until two parallel lines running from left to right enter the frame as a graphic element, seeming to set our eyes on a rail.

Ganymede tells what really happened up there on Mount Olympus.

A childhood memoir recalling impending parental loss. Using humor and haunting simplicity, Bond infuses the memoir with intelligence and grace that transforms the personal into a powerful cinematic experience—delving into the complexity of family dynamics, death and dying, and the germination and growth of the creative process. The memoir interweaves animations of seventh grade drawings with vintage TV footage, lost and found sound, and metaphoric imagery.

This video is a piece of pure visual music: a synchronous visual and musical canon. Each musical phrase corresponds to a visual movement: in this case, a filling of the visual plane with a color. The color fields are flat, corresponding to an unadorned melody, and the animated transitions give a visual form to the musical form. The animation is offset in time and composited atop itself to create a visual analog to a musical canon. Each visual layer fills the plane just as each musical tone of each voice is heard. Harmony of counterpoint is achieved visually with these overlapping layers.

An animation directed by Shinya Hiratake.
