SATURDAY SHORT: FROM BEHIND (2005)
“From Behind” is the first episode in what is supposed to be a series of animated shorts titled WORKU. So far there has only been a trailer made for the second segment. The creators insist, though, that they have not given up on the project.
In this first episode, a drifter searches for an environment that suits him. Alas, the one he finds turns out to be less than satisfactory.
SATURDAY SHORT: THE FANTASTIC ADVENTURES OF CLOUDMAN (2010)
One aspect of Phoebe Parsons’ work is its tendency to skip from different animation styles to live-action. “The Fantastic Adventures of Cloudman” is no exception. In its thirteen-minute length, no one animation style prevails. Even the live-action sequences are spiced up with fireworks, Styrofoam, paper-mache, and sometimes even animation, making them vary considerably.
CONTENT WARNING: This short contains brief drug use, and some mild violence.
