Video: Glass Boy


Glass Boy by Roni Kleiner

Installation: Forms



Forms is a multiscreen digital artwork commissioned by the National Media Museum for the exhibition In the Blink of an Eye: Media and Movement, which is part of the Cultural Olympiad program. This generative animation and interactive installation will display at the Museum from 9 March – 2 September.

A large projection of the animation will be displayed within the space, with a smaller split screen mounted on a plinth just in front to show not only the original footage of athletes on which each animation is based, but also the individual layers of that animation, which can be digitally peeled back by the viewer.

Short Film: Load



If you ever feel overwhelmed at work, this is the short film for you. In one of the strongest visual metaphors I have seen for quite a while, the protagonist of the piece finds himself covered in post-it notes from head to toe and soon learns an important lesson about priorities that changes his perception of the world around him.
A man covered in responsibilities and burdened by the weight of his work is swept away on a journey that changes his perception of life.

Short Film: Dorothy



What happens when fairy tales and our modern technology collide? Which is the more real? When Dorothy finds herself lost in space, all seems lost, but for a small twist of magic.
"Dorothy" was initially a collaboration project called "Twisted Tales" between singer/songwriter Yunyu, manga artist Queenie Chan and theCommonist. The first released song was based on Dorothy who contemplates her fate as her magic shoes no longer work, therefore she is stuck in space.

With the wonderful song by Yunyu, theCommonist wanted to try something more surreal, and came across a concept that, what if the 'space' we were told it's fake? Hence, we designed and made the naive cosmonaut to stuck in a 'man-made space', a space with fake planets and stars, like a planetarium.

Real is Fake is Real, this paradox continues to inspire theCommonist in developing the lost cosmonaut story in our coming short film project called "The Planetarium".

Short Film: Fantastic Flying Books



Inspired, in equal measures, by Hurricane Katrina, Buster Keaton, The Wizard of Oz, and a love for books, "Morris Lessmore" is a story of people who devote their lives to books and books who return the favor. Morris Lessmore is a poignant, humorous allegory about the curative powers of story. Using a variety of techniques (miniatures, computer animation, 2D animation) award winning author/ illustrator William Joyce and Co-director Brandon Oldenburg present a new narrative experience that harkens back to silent films and M-G-M Technicolor musicals. "Morris Lessmore" is old fashioned and cutting edge at the same time.

“The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore” is one of five animated short films that will be considered for outstanding film achievements of 2011 in the 84th Academy Awards.
