old fashioned and cutting edge at the same time

“The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore” is one of five animated short films that will be considered for outstanding film achievements of 2011 in the 84th Academy Awards ®.

Even the animation is digital, everything what is said, shown in the animation is more ” analog” because in my eyes the story is about the beauty of books and how they are born, raised and what happens to people who do not read and so much more…

well done by the animation studio Moonbot and a production by William Joyce and director Brandon Oldenburg

Inspired, in equal measures, by Hurricane Katrina, Buster Keaton, The Wizard of Oz, and a love for books, “Morris Lessmore” is a story of people who devote their lives to books and books who return the favor. Morris Lessmore is a poignant, humorous allegory about the curative powers of story. “Morris Lessmore” is old-fashioned and cutting edge at the same time.

I wish the team all the best and I have to look for the other four animation to make myself a broader overview.

into time .org is a new piece by Rafaël Rozendaal. When you click on his site, you can play around with the screen, which is diving in a 45° direction every time you click. Wonderful couleurful work!  (via today and tomorrow)

That video is the right start for my 2011 year and after my pause for one months a good ways to find back into writing articles. The animation ” Ishihara” from Yoav Brill (studied animation at the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem, Israel.) is narrating the animators story about being colorblind. My blog is nearly called the same, but I am not colorblind. I see some colors even stronger than most of my friends around me or I thing sometimes I can feel them but for sure I need them bright and strong around me. Enjoy watching the animation… it is really well done!
