My friend Dan McGuire tipped me to this great video that ThisIsColossal.com sourced. Beyond being truly beautiful and incredibly well executed, the animators have a name (“Oh Yeah Wow”)I am jealous of — and that doesn’t happen too often.

I love that I can be inspired every day and still know that I am not seeing even close to all there is. There’s so much great work out there. May it never end. Oh yeah wow.

One Of The Best Short Films EVER!!!


Frank Film, Frank MOURIS, 1973 by shortanimatedworld

I can’t believe I have lived so long without having encountered this film before. It won an Oscar in 1973 for Best Animated Short. Even with the commercial interruption and poor resolution it made my list of Best Shorts ever. What’s on your list?
