stunning animated short

I watched this short last night and I have to say ive never seen anything so emotionally engaging...and its a student's work!!!

It is so inspirational and I think it is something everyone needs to watch. It has recieved so many accolades over on CGTalk - even the seasoned pro's are astounded by it. It was done by a student of the Ringling school...amazing work...If it had been finished in time im sure it could've won an oscar user added image

U can download/watch it here:

Its when u see things like this that u get that urge to sit at ur computer 24/7 lol

Do you have the link bud?

What I found trully great about this piece was the fact that it shows good art, and photography knowledge, look at the way he played with colors and you´ll get what I mean. I also liked the way he handled post-processing. Awesome.

Im suprised u didnt like it Ultragames but I guess thats ur perogative.

To me its not just the story, or the modelling or the animation thats amazing but also as adldesigner mentioned, the post production. Did u lot notice how he used the black border lines to great effect? Hybrid the colours are great arent they. I think they are down to colour grading in Shake. The lighting and textures make it so atmospheric. The girl's voice is spot on...maybe the father's is lacking but overall its a magical piece of imagination and creativity.
