Watch Always, Only, Ever below: Always, Only, Ever was created by Barbara Benas at the Columbus College of Art and Design. There’s so much to like about the film including Benas’s expert handling of color, design, and storytelling, but what stood out above all else was the quality of her animation, both technically and emotionally. From the tender, drunken behavior of the main character to the exuberant choreography of the women, the animation in Always, Only, Ever carries us into a world that is both familiar and magical. More details about the making of Always, Only, Ever can be found on the film’s Cartoon Brew TV page. Comments are also open on that page.

Bruce is a powerful graduation film directed by Tom Judd at Royal College of Art. A simple gag on the surface, there are some thought-provoking and disturbing ideas beyond the surface—for example, how should we feel about synthetically created and controlled lives? According to Tom, “It was all animated in Photoshop CS4. A few of the more dynamic shots were done in Maya and then rotoscoped in PS.” 12 Comments » posted in Shorts, Student, Tom Judd September 7, 2010 12:05 am
