Always on the lookout for more short animation. Know of anything good?
"The Little Matchgirl." Best strictly Disney production in more than 10 years?
"Visit from a Dead Dog." Music video animated by Tom Gauld, a comic artist I like.
Also, this isn't YouTube but I urge everyone to watch The Big Snit (better quality than YT). May be my favorite short animated film.

Seeing things like that makes me want to try it but good lord that would require a lot of free time.
That Little Matchgirl short is Disney? Interesting. I really hope the studio is mustering the talent to put out a full length feature with animation of that quality. The subject matter I doubt considering the kind of sad, morbid nature of it- but an adultish full length disney film. I'd see it.

That one's awesome. Check out the link in my first post. Richard Condie worked on both 'Big Snit' and 'The Cat Came Back' so their timing and humor are really similar.
Do you prefer dogs or cats?
That was incredible. So much emotion was given there. I love the determined, yet desperate expression she makes when she strikes the three matches. This is unlike anything Disney's done in a long, long time. I could even say it had a soul to it; its creators really cared about it.Originally Posted by Sqoon
I had no idea Disney could make anything of that quality any more. Wikipedia says it was originally developed for Fantasia 2006 and was published on the new The Little Mermaid DVD.
Dammit, Disney, if you still have the talent to stir up such emotion, why are you still making tripe like The Wild?
oh man, this thread was a great idea. I have much love for the short animation form.
Russian animation from the 70s that made some amazing use of cut-outs
Great bit of psychadelia
Plympton is a master of the form:
This was animated entirely by one guy on his Mac at home, in his spare time.
Amazing animated short from 1980 by Chinese animator Te Wei. Unfortunately I couldn't find his earlier work Buffalo Boy and the Flute, which is a favorite of mine. Pretty clearly an influence on Okami, incidentally. Part 1/2
Part 2

Now that I've shared a bunch, does anyone with a better memory than me rememeber a series of animates shorts that used to play during commercial break s on Nickelodeon during the late 80s, featuring a small gray dog? I recall one where the gag involved him dreaming of sleeping, and another one with his insane owner playing a piano and singing a song called "I'm mad". I can't remember what they were called or who did them, as I was pretty young at the time.

That dog one was called dog brain if I remember right. Was it that simple animation short where the dog just sleeped, snored and farted while people made noise around the house?
If thats it, its done by the same people who did that animation shin posted. Its all done by some studio up in Canada, cause I remember seeing/reading about Canadian animation a long time ago.
