Another fun short from Vimeo. Good to show the kids as an example of the power of cooperation!
thinglets: Space Travel According to John

Some fun animation to provide a much-needed mind break.
thinglets: Plot Device
via vimeo.com
Funny and clever wrapped up in 10 minutes. A really fun journey through movie cliches and just the right amount of twist. Give yourself a coffee break in front of Vimeo and come away smiling. Plus, it looks great in HD!
thinglets: Crazy Sci-Fi Awesomeness
via vimeo.com
While I realize the style of this video may be seizure-inducing for some people, S.I.T.E compresses some of humanity's worst alien, dystopian fears into five minutes or less. Creepy, cool, and captivating: give this video a chance beyond the first couple of minutes and allow things to come together. I'm half convinced I'll be subliminally craving Hot Pockets sometime this evening.
thinglets: Cat & Bird

Under a minute. Cute. Cool. Just because.
thinglets: Tumblingerstraße und Reichenbachstraße
I love stop-action animation done well and both of these short films fit the bill. I marvel at the planning and work that went into making both of these. They almost look like tilt-shift.Kudos!
thinglets: Filming of a Ghost
A fantastic two minutes of film called Ghost by Marco Brambilla that is supposed to represent "än investigation into the obsessive behavior of the public eye and it's lingering effects on those chased and caught by it."
I'll leave to you as to whether it succeeds on that score, but I will say that the result is gripping, stylish, and tragic in 120 seconds. Another great find at Vimeo - much more pleasurable to wade through than YouTube.
