MAF Day 1 - Short Films Highlight

Fox and Whale

Visually stunning shorts about an epic journey of a fox to find a whale. The film is a pure eyegasm, with advanced visual effects of the environment, while the fox character is 2D animated. Yet another sucessful combination between 2D and 3D medium.



Kaputt

A documentary animation about the life in women prison. It has an interesting animation technique, by not totally rubbing off the previous drawings, giving the animation a surreal look.




How Long, Not Long

Expeimental animation made based on Martin Luther King's speech with the same title. It is a compilation of unrelated footages with Martin Luther King's recorded original speech as a background sound. A propaganda piece that pitched the idea of social change, and advocating a social revolution of the future. The rotoscoping technique used really works well with the message and the aesthetic says it all about social revolution through the use of bold colours superimposed to a white background similar to the colours used in protest and propaganda art.
