Vincent
September 28th, 2007
Written and directed by Tim Burton.
Description: Vincent is the story of a young man that fancies himself to become like Vincent Price, constantly dabbling in macabre daydreams that tend to annoy his mother. Although dark and sort of expressionist in aspect, the animation becomes quite funny through the contrast between the boy’s fantasy and his real life.

Fallen art
September 23rd, 2007
Written and directed by Tomek Baginski. Soundtrack by Fanfare Ciocarlia.
Description: Fallen art is essentially an animation about an animation, but a more gruesome one at that. It’s the short story of a “mad scientist” that uses photographs of soldiers thrown off a high ramp and smashed on the concrete below to create his own masterpiece. The background music and the excellent graphics make this animation a must-see.
