This short animation got Tim Burton started in his career more or less. It's a classic :)
The Open Animation Festival is here to showcase all sorts of interesting and inspiring animated shorts. It's a particular kind of art to make these and can often take 100's or even 1000's of hours of work to complete. Here I will try to find some of the best and show it off a bit.

This is one of my first introductions to the Annecy animation festival and Gobelins animation school who does opening animations for the festival by the students as their final year project. Most of them are really excellent.

The Pig Farmer - by Nick Cross
This is a interesting one :)
The Pig Farmer is a short animated cartoon by Nick Cross. A simple tale of a wayward soul, awash in an ocean of tragedy and regret.
