366 Days - Animated Short Films
Shelley Page says: This wonderful film, about a young man who looks back over his year of national service as a paramedic, was directed by Johannes Schiehsl of Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg. This is my personal favourite from the graduation films of the past year or two, and is by turns funny, touching, disturbing and ultimately very moving. The story has an added depth because it’s based on the director’s personal experiences. The quality of the storyboarding, animation and production design...

Pick of the Week - Animated Short Films
El Monstruo is one of those animations you see and completely forget why you are watching it. It holds a real nostalgia value and romance, not just to animators but many viewers. You’d be forgiven for thinking this is a cardboard stop-motion piece, when it is in actual fact all CG, created in Maya and rendered with Arnold. Technically the work is superb, with love and craftsmanship in each shot but really it’s the feel of the piece that makes it so lovely.

Unified - Animated Short Films
Did this piece for an exhibition at the Gladstone hotel in Toronto, which was showcasing some of my work. As one long move, it's hardly Kubrick but was fun to make, and a good chance to test drive Vray on a longer form animation. If you enjoy staring at a single painting in a gallery for hours on end, you probably love this.
