The Cat with Hands

I do apologise for not having much real written content lately, but my final year deadlines are catching up with me! Perhaps at the end of it all I'll finally be an educated woman!

Here's a piece from the lastest Short&Sweet:

Short & Sweet

I feel a little guilty writing this, as already too many people know about Short & Sweet, but I feel that spreading the vibe will only increase the general happiness. Short & Sweet is the only weekly short film screening club in London. They promote new talents, but also present work of the major directors, both in animation and live action. I attend their shows every week and find inspiring work shown time and again. S & S is managed by Julia Stephenson, an ultra-energetic Australian chick, whose high pitch makes the whole thing click and sway.



Short & Sweet was selected to screen the short films nominated for BAFTA this year. I got to attend one of the two sessions and saw some very interesting work. The video above is regrettably only a fragment of 'The Crumblegiant' by John McCloskey. The video below is 'The Pearce Sisters' by Luis Cook, a strange and vaguely disturbing story of two lonely sisters living by the coast. Other than the BAFTA awards, yesterday at Short & Sweet I saw Signe Bauman's 'Teat Bit of Sex', which was commissioned for European television, but is still considered too explicit to be shown on iTunes or Netflix. I find it somewhat amusing that sexual content in animation is considered too explicit considering all the sicko violent movies out there...

The Cat Came Back

This space is not transforming into be an animation-obsessed blog, I promise! I'll actually write something soon, but for the moment enjoy yet another piece of animation thrown at me recently...

I got this from my darling flatmate Vincent. A bit of 'optimism' can't hurt this morning...

South Park anyone?


I got my hands on a webpage where you can load any South Park episode for free. Just in case anyone's interested, check it out!

And erm, Merry Christmas everyone!

Two Stupid Dogs

These are some of my all-time favorite cartoons, which my brother and I (perhaps regrettably) grew up on...
