Here we go with the video of the week section where I bring to you a great inspirational video found on internet throughout the work week, it could be a motion graphics or an animation, 2d or 3d, even a trailer or music video with some great design or animation techniques.

For this week I found an excellent animation written, directed and animated by Egtmon Mayer and excellent 3d artist and filmmaker from Germany. He has a good experience in stop motion thanks to  two others short films made in the last years and now he put all of himself in  this 3d animation short called Red Rabbit, for this animation he won the Best student prize Sicaf 08 and he was screened on Annecy 08, where he received really good feedback from the animation industries.

Egmont is currently working freelance on commercials and image films and is founding member of SHAPE-Berlin, a creative collective combining both animation an design.

Red Rabbit

A man who lives alone in a small apartment. The little contact he had with other people has dropped to zero since the rabbit appeared. Every attempt to get the rabbit out of his apartment has failed and since he is not sure whether or not pets are allowed in the building, he does not let anybody enter his apartment.

    What a wonderful blog. I spend hours on the internet reading blogs, about tons of different subjects. I have to first of all give kudos to whoever created your website and second of all to you for writing what i can only describe as an unbelievable post. I honestly believe there is a skill to writing articles that only a few posses and frankly you have it. The combination of informative and quality content is definitely extremely rare with the large amount of blogs on the internet.
