Super-talented London animation house, Treat Studios, has loads of great stuff posted up on their Vimeo account. The attached video stood out from the pack, however. It’s a teaser trailer they created to promote an Etsy labs sponsored show they were a part of in Berlin – it’s strange, colorful, bright, bizarre and just plain wonderful. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Khoda is a short film created as a student project by director Reza Dolatabadi . The film utilizes over 6,000 individual paintings shown in succession. When I first read that I knew it was an absolute must that I watch it. I suppose it is a psychological thriller, but I’m not sure. I was too busy gawking over the painstaking visuals of the film to really focus on the story. As the description says, if you pause it, you are facing a painting. It’s only 4 minutes long, but it certainly packs a punch. Turn down the lights and watch this one closely. I think you’ll be impressed.

“The lynx nudibranch only dines upon hydroids, and is especially fond of Myrionema amboinense. In the video we observe the lynx nudibranch on the hunt. With sight limited to only the detection of light and dark, the nudibranch relies on touch and ‘smell’ to detect its surroundings. By sweeping its two oral tentacles open wide as it moves, it maximizes its likelihood of coming into contact with a hydroid. When they touch, the nudibranch reacts abruptly from the hydroid’s sting. Once the hydroid has been detected, the nudibranch is challenged with the task of eating it…continue reading”

German animator, Matthias Müller, created this marvelous reactive animation to accompany Denny Schneidemesser‘s orchestral piece, ‘Entering The Stronghold’. Best served with the lights dimmed and volume up. He was even kind enough to offer a link to download a higher quality version of the video...cheers, Matthias!

I have lots of recurring themes in my dreams – some awful, some amazingly great and lots of weird ones in between. One type that falls into the ‘amazingly great’ category is when I have the ability to jump great distances in a single bound. I crouch down, spring off and bound across beautiful landscapes; touching down for an instant every so often before taking off again. This video does an excellent job of showcasing what it’s like.
Cheers to Andrew Gordon for sending it in!
