A funny Short film by Olivier Staphylas for his final thesis project at the French animation school “Gobelins”. He is currently Head of Animation at Dreamworks!
Check out the making of this amazing short below… The technique used in the short to create a blend of 2D and 3D is really cool. The rigs are really nice to look at 🙂
Fantastic super cartoony ~ multi layered body and facial rig demo by Ehsan H.M! No wonder it took him 31 days to rig 🙂
Very impressive work by Manar Al Tawam specially for the reason that he worked on all of the components!
Behind the scene look at the unique look of ILM’s first animated feature, Rango! Really nice insight on how the actor’s performance (e-motion) were captured to bring out the CG act. This should be one of the most atmospheric animated movie and in the video we can get an in depth glimpse of how it was realized.
This should be terrifying and fun at the same time! He is gliding too close to the ground and the tree tops. I should say gliding on the edge! Awesome …
Awesome fan video for the original Planet of the Apes by Brad Hasse!
Really nice edits, the dance cuts and moves 😉
Here is another fine piece of character animation reel for advance body mechanics by Manish Shakya! The video is a bit choppy though, guess it’s some codec or frame-rate issue on vimeo…
More papers and publication from Walt Disney! More Cool Stuffs. Check them all out, really wonderful and useful resource materials for all artist alike 🙂
Walt Disney’s ElasticSkin presented on Siggraph 2011. Cool stufff! Check it out 🙂

Here’s a video-demonstration
