This is a beautifully crafted short film, made by the animation director of "Waltz With Bashir". SBIT animation students should recognise some of the Flash tricks that the filmmaker has used, especially the beloved 2.5d technique!

I'm not a political animal and so I'm not making any comments on the film's message... but boy, it is a gorgeous little film that seems to me to have it's heart in the right place.

WOW!

After much hype and anticipation this multi award winning student film from Gobilins is legitimately up on the net. Definitely a cut above your average student film.

World War

World war is a very classy film from the University Of Hertfordshire. Often when there is one thing I don't like about a film people assume I hated the whole thing, so before I mention the one thing I didn't like just let me say. I LIKED THIS FILM. Weight, Timing, Design, character dynamics, there was plenty that was well above average for a student film. The one thing I don't like is the bullet time. In the Matrix, the bullet time served a purpose, it was showing us actions that were supposedly too fast for us to see, often the scenes were shown with relative objects that we took for granted as moving fast (ie. Bullets) to drive home the "speed" we were witnessing. When you just throw it in for no apparent reason apart from you think its cool, its bad symbolism and just comes off as nerdy as far as I'm concerned. That having been said, there is some cool stuff in this film, you wouldn't necessarily pick it as student work. So lets nerd it up together and enjoy World War.

A thrilling and beautiful Sci Fi thriller from Gobelins graduate Remi Gamiette. The character animation and art direction is first class.
