An excerpt from Tales of Mere Existence III - The 7 Habits of Highly Negative People. "Tales Of Mere Existence" is not necessarily about interesting stories, It is what it's title indicates, anecdotes about the gloriously mundane. Everyday stories told not by the Devil on your right shoulder or the Angel on your left, but the voice in the middle of your head that doubts himself, questions everything, and sometimes doesn't let you get out of bed. An unseen narrator tells the stories in a monotone voice, while his doodled illustrations come together on the screen. The stories deal with issues such as Sex, identity, and social confusion and just about anything else you would have writte... more info

Dark and humorous, this extremely short film is a stream-of-conscious look at the writing process, told with animated images straight from the subconscious… or somewhere. The narrative originates from an unpublished satirical essay by poet Scott Poole about his own writing process. It was the inspiration for filmmaker Chel White to build this one-minute film upon. Influenced in part by collage films of the 1960’s and early 70’s, this film jitters and pops with a hodgepodge of crazy images. Some are derived from digital still photographs of actor Don Alder and various prop elements relating to the narration. Others are bits and pieces of photo collage overlaid to further push the fre... more info

The storytelling [in Futuristic Toys] aims to be a reprise of a certain futuristic representation, a grotesque tale of the lack of psychology in this type of dramatic scenes, and which would spark a sense of loss and amazement in the viewer, still remaining in a dreamlike vision. On the other side it is an expressionist "drama" which contextualize the human being ruled by the "mechanicity" built by himself and it wants to awake his asleep conscience. The drama,actually pretty ironic,actually, touches also issues raised by classic Italian literature as "La Divina Commedia" and "I Promessi Sposi" ,making them extremely synthetics - as Futurist theater was. The film can be considered in a ... more info

Startle Pattern is a deconstruction of spectatorship and authorship in the moving image. In the late age of film emulsion, this essay is a call of the cinematic gaze to a state of crisis. An interior space of a puppet becomes increasingly reflective, revealing the artifice of his own creation, and leaving his form tattered and decayed. This narrative of isolation hints at the Protagonist's delicate relationship with reality, voyeurism and the apparatus.... more info

DREAMLAKE. Sounds sink slowly in to the ground, Thoughts float away as clouds, Dreams flow like water, Dreamlake a reservoir of dreams and memories. Concept. Dreamlake is an experimental, digitally animated film which attempts to work within a consistent pattern of discontinuity or dreamlike logic. Dreamlake contains an abstraction of narrative and the foregrounding of audio visual and kinetic spectacle and as such has a form with many parallels to the forms that can be found in classical ballet, modern action adventure films and music video. An e-scape into an electronic sound and video scape , a surrealistic ballet of sound and images. A reflection on the human constructed ... more info

Passing is a short film that explores the idea of passing (passing time, passing histories, and passing away). To create the film, self-portrait photographs of the filmmaker taken in an abandoned home were used as a stage to re-inhabit and reinvent through single frame animation. Mark making, collage and sound engender a new history in the spaces of a vanishing home. ... more info

The Modern sculpture born in the first half of the 20th century took rounded, organic shapes from nature and added to them straight cuts, flattened surfaces and lines (wires) connecting parts of the piece. The apparent contradiction of the organic and the industrial, flat and straight surfaces created the strong appeal and transcending quality of modern sculpture. As former sculptors we have been developing a series of forms inspired in modern sculpture, using 3D software. Although we could add qualities intrinsic to our media (CG) that the iron and marble sculptors didn’t have – such as transparency and above of all movement. Also we can layer the initial result bringing complexity to ... more info
