Independent Short Film: Destino

April 9th, 2010

This Animated Short Film has become quite well known. If you are unfamiliar with it, you will note from the opening credits that it was a collaboration between surrealist painter Salvador Dali and animator Walt Disney. Production began in 1945 but the project was shelved indefinitely and all but forgotten. It was finally completed in 2003, combining traditional and digital animation techniques.

Enjoy.

Independent Short Film: Deadline

March 30th, 2010

This isn’t the first post-it note stop motion short film I’ve seen, but it’s definitely one of the better ones.

I can definitely relate to the message. What do you think?

Independent Short Film: Dance with the Devil

December 16th, 2009

First a preface, and then a disclaimer:

I’d like to begin by saying that I have very strong personal objections to creating a music video and slapping the name “short film” onto it.  I’ve seen it done numerous times and it really irritates me.

That said, I’ve decided (perhaps subjectively) that the short film in this post is, in fact, an Independent Short Film and not a music video.  Here’s why:  The film was made by a film student, not the artist.  Although the story has its origin in the lyrics, the independent musician had nothing to do with the production of this short film.

And now the disclaimer:
This Independent Short Film will probably offend some viewers.  The lyrics of the song contain words which many find to be inappropriate.  They also describe a scene of violence and abuse, which in the short film, although animated, is nonetheless disturbing.  However, I found the film to be powerfully moving, and the social and spiritual messages conveyed are what compelled me to post it here.  I do hope that you’ll watch it, but be advised that it is not suitable for everyone.
