“Classroom (3D Camera Flythrough)” is a spectacular 3D computer generated flythrough animation by Israel’s Studio Aiko. This amazing 3D classroom rendering is not a video of an actual classroom. “Classroom” by Studio Aiko is an example of attention to detail and long hours of getting it right. You can watch the video over and over just to see where or if they messed up. Maybe a graphic element will be reversed or an object won’t be quite in line with its physical properties, but you probably won’t find anything. With our current ability to produce ultra-realistic CGI, at what point will we go so far that we can no longer distinguish our realities?
This piece presents a number of high-resolution color photographs, as well as the 3D-CGI animated short, “Classroom (3D Camera Flythrough).” In addition, it includes another dazzling 3D animated short from Studio Aiko, “Hot Movies Prom."

“Animals” is a wickedly comical animated short film by Kristofer Ström, created for Minilogue’s music video, “Animals.” Minilogue’s music is self-described as Swedish Post-House/Techno, leaving behind the boundaries of those genres, and actually all previous musical genres. The magical little creature-animals serve as the musical front for the band, or rather as its visual front of imaginary, enchanting creatures. And a very strange and goofy ensemble of cavorting little creatures they are!
This piece includes a number of colorful illustrations, as well as two enchantingly zany animated shorts.

“The Forest” is a beautiful, deep and somewhat disturbing animated short film created by David Sharf. This really exceptional work presents beautiful graphics that that are stylish and unique, with the storytelling conveyed through haunting voice-overs. The film raises the very emotional question of whether our sense of inner peace is merely a utopian state unless we can find a way to escape from the iron grip of society’s rule.
The film’s story centers on a daydreaming 12-year-old girl named Antonia, whose imagination takes her far away into a magical forest where she hides from the problems of the real world. Without giving away too much, Antonia’s father takes some very drastic measures, shattering the little girl’s fantasy world and forcing her to make some very difficult choices. Antonia finds a simple but radical solution to cope with the hostile environment that entraps her. You should just watch this film to see her desperate response, it’s only six-minutes long.
Includes colorful illustrations from the film, as well as the wonderful, thought-provoking animated short, “The Forest.”

In celebration of the greatest athletic achievement by a man on a psychedelic journey, No Mas and artist James Blagden proudly present the animated tale of Dock Ellis' legendary LSD no-hitter. In the past few years weve heard all too much about performance enhancing drugs from greenies to tetrahydrogestrinone, and not enough about performance inhibiting drugs. If our evaluation of the records of athletes like Mark McGwire, Roger Clemens, Marion Jones, and Barry Bonds needs to be revised downwards with an asterisk, we submit that that Dock Ellis record deserves a giant exclamation point. Of the 263 no-hitters ever thrown in the Big Leagues, we can only guess how many were aided by steroids, but we can say without question that only one was ever thrown on acid.
Sadly, the great Dock Ellis died last December at 63. A year before, radio producers Donnell Alexander and Neille Ilel, had recorded an interview with Ellis in which the former Pirate right hander gave a moment by moment account of June 12, 1970, the day he no-hit the San Diego Padres. Alexander and Ilels original four minute piece appeared March 29, 2008 on NPRs Weekend America. When we stumbled across that piece this past June, Blagden and Isenberg were inspired to create a short animated film around the original audio.
