All these animated shorts are worthy of their nominee status, but possibly the most amusing video in the post is the “making of…” video. The insight into filming is interesting.

Ah man I will have to search for logorama as the video been taking down and I haven’t seen it!
From what I have seen.. I love French Roast and A Matter of Loaf & Death.
French Roast for its technique character and morals, A Matter of Loaf & Death for its cultural reference to British Tradition and wit.
Good stuff overall!

Found Logorama… incredible!
Must say.. in response to Jamie Northrup saying Logorama stood out, I think apart of that effect is the fact its Logo based?
Psychologically we remember Logo more because of there simplicity better yet there have a permanent place in our nostalgic memory and everyday life (we cant get away from them)!
Where as these other animations (although based on reality in some form) are really great but there creating there on visual representation in our existence.. does anyone get what I mean? lol
Was just a thought..
Anyway thanks for sharing, enjoyed and was inspired by all, for all different reasons.
Thank God for Art..
