Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

Like a lot of Pixar's shorts, this has the unique ability to convey tremendous depth without words.


"From Reflections - Bezalel 2013 5 months ago ALL AUDIENCES

This is our graduation film from Bezalel - Academy of art and design, Jerusalem 2013

This is the story of Barnie, a grown man, Play around with his childish reflection in an urban landscape.
But the fun comes to an end when other adults around change him, and turn him into one of them.

*The film was made with TVPaint 9.5, Photoshop and After effects cs6.

We hope you'll enjoy it! :)"

The European Space Agency has successfully launched its Gaia satellite into orbit, bringing a 1 billion-pixel camera detector to map our galaxy in 3D.

"Mad City Christmas is another gorgeous looking city created by Mad Pea Productions, this time the city is covered in snow and there are plenty of shops for some good old fashioned Christmas shopping. There is also the Holiday Havoc Hunt and and Advent Calendar with gifts, for those looking for some action and puzzles :).

For me, not so much into hunts and puzzles, it was a great location to wander around and make some pictures – the film noir-ish ambiance is just wonderful! A perfect town for photoshoots!"

When one of their adventures leads to the discovery of a secret ice cave that is home to hundreds of new wild dragons and the mysterious Dragon Rider, the two friends find themselves at the center of a battle to protect the peace.

Picture it: you're sitting on the plane or in the doctor's waiting room, listening to music on a large, good-looking set of headphones. You decide you'd rather catch up on Justified, or play a little Call of Duty. You tip your headphones forward until the broad white band is now in front of your face, and suddenly your show or game appears on the underside. It's like watching an 80-inch TV, except the picture you're seeing isn't on an LCD screen — it's being projected directly into your eyes.

CrazyTalk Animator 2 brings a whole new 3D experience to 2D animation! In this new version, we have taken a huge leap forward by elimintating planar, 2D restrictions and allowing designers to now use popular 3D motions on 2D characters. This has opened a new way for editing motions freely without single angle limitations. In addition, the brand new multi-dimensional character system maintains the mix-and-match creation power of CrazyTalk Animator, while delivering quick, render style options for instant visual alternatives. CrazyTalk Animator 2 is not just the next version; it is the kick-starter to a 3D motion revolution in 2D animation!

Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

Ryan Lewis is one of the co-creators and producers of "Chosen," an original series starring Milo Ventimiglia that airs exclusively in the U.S. on the streaming site Crackle. The show, which is written and directed by Ben Ketai, is a rarity in the digital space outside of Netflix, where comedy and short form still rule the day. "Chosen" is an action series made up of six half-hour episodes that take place at a breakneck pace, with Ventimiglia's character plunged into a mysterious kill-or-be-killed game.
