Contemporary Animation

I'm a little split on the animation we watched in class. I appreciated the work put into it, and how it washed over the viewer, but I don't know if I actually liked it or not.

A more contemporary version of this would be M dot Strange's "We are the Strange." There is a story to it...but I'm not entirely sure what it is. I mean, I know it takes place in a world inside a video game...but that's just about it. This one as well washes over the viewer. Whenever I see it I usually come away inspired because it reminds me that there are no rules to film-making.

It uses animation techniques from all sorts of fields. It's all posted on youtube, so check it out. Below is the trailer.
