SUNDANCE - ANIMATIONS 3


Bats

8 Bits by Valere Amirault et al (2010) (6m) (France)

8 Bits begins as a glossy computer animation where a computer game "boss" is toasting his successful capture of a woman with special powers. However, someone has come to ruin the party and, with the help of the captive, the graphics. When the fight breaks out, old 2D graphics momentarily takeover before the boss demands the "end of level" battle take place in the 3D world. However, it proves to be a temporary rest bite...


Doc Ellis

Dock Ellis & The LSD No-No by James Blagden (2010) (US) (5m)

Doc Ellis, who died in 2008, was a baseball player for the Pittsburgh Pirates and is probably best known for throwing a 'no-hitter' or 'no-no' (a good thing!) against San Diego in 1970 and later admitting that he had thrown the 'no-no' while under the influence of the hallucinogen LSD. It is this now infamous incident that he narrates himself to a drug-fuelled backdrop in this engrossing Sundance animation.


Karma Ghost

Karma Ghost by Billy Blob (2002) (US) (4m) *

Karma Ghost won the Online Film Festival Viewers Award at the 2002 Sundance Film Festival. It is an amusing, dialogue-free animation following a man who goes about his business with a total disregard for others - but every wrong he does sees another Karma Ghost added to his guilt. Billy Blob (which must be a pseudonym) disappeared after this film.
