Bumble Bee Boy

The first animation that I watch was called Bumble Bee Boy. I obviously chose this one because it reminds me of the awesome movie series Transformers. :) This animation was cool because it reminds me of the movie and also because the descriptions says that these clips are based of real life things and not hand drawn clip by clip. So that means that someone took the time to build the model and take picture after picture of the object moving to create this sorta of mini movie. So I can appreciate that because I certainly don't have the time to create an animation of this sort.

This is Where We Live

This was a cool video to watch because it was all about the characters in books. I liked the beginning because it reminded me about our animation flip books that we have to do in class. But I really liked how they made a video about the book characters but making sure to keep the closed books in the background. This reminded me that there is more to a book that what you think, and when you actually sit down to read a good book, all of the stories that come out of that book are amazing. So needless to say, I liked this video. :)

Okay, so I know that I really liked the book video, but this was probably my favorite one. I am a math major, but I have an environmental science background because I love the environment and Earth. This video was an amazing way to represent the wear and tear we have created on this earth. That no matter when, the trees still stand tall, withering all that we throw at them. The wood shows signs of old age and hard times however, still holds up buildings and bridges. This was just so cool. Well done.
