AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks

FrogGlace In other words,this film is a surreal ride.

Claire Dunne One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

sonido-1 The image can be expanded from the observation of similarities.I supposed that the similarity between a giraffe and crane inspired the artist. The work combines a charming story with attractive illustrations in bold colors and composition.It's all about the gentle, delicate movement that Bellini is able to give the piece using computer animation. It came about as the result of his last assignment at the University. "I had to create a piece of work of about two minutes," Bellini explains. "I am interested in a story which I can present without dialog. And when I create an animation, I target children mostly. This is, in one sense, a challenge for me. Children are very honest and they would say the truth if they clearly don't like it, period. So I am the most tense when my work is shown to children." Just some quotes i find googling him.Just like the main theme of Global Eyes, Bellini had in mind the interchange of different cultures as his theme. "'How do different cultures or different people interact?' is the main theme and this is a very important thing in contemporary society -- at least in Argentinean society -- in my point of view. The reason I use a crane and a giraffe is because there is a port on my way to the university and I saw cranes every day. A crane and a giraffe look alike, don't they? I thought about crane, giraffe, crane, giraffe, every day and I came to think it would be good to make a story in which these two creatures appear. I imagined if a crane and a giraffe met, how would they think of each other."Bellini worked hard to maintain the features of hand drawing while animating the piece. "Although this is my first animated short film, when I got the idea, I structured a story while drawing drafts and created a storyboard on small sheets of paper. After that, I drew illustrations on the PC using tablets. The Crane and the Giraffe was made with a really cheap genius tablet ($50 more or less) but now with the world prizes, I can afford a beautiful Wacom Intuos3 that I really love." Bellini prefers hand drawing to computer animation. "It is nice to draw a picture on paper, as it is traditional, but in my opinion, too much paper will be needed, which is a waste if you think from the point of view of resources. The production of La grua y la jirafa took about four months. It doesn't mean I worked on only that every day, but it was time-consuming to draw sketches one by one -- and also it was my first time. When you move a picture, I love that the line of the character wobbles. That's why I draw pictures by hand. Hand drawing gives a lively impression and warm presentation... full of life characters. I personally am not fond of animation using the full range of CG technology, vector graphics, key-frame-made animation as it gives me a very cold feeling. I'm a big Dr. Katz fan (Comedy Central's Emmy-winning cartoon)!"I have a favorable impression of this artist because he follows the basic premise of animation which is to tell a story with movement only. His technique and story-making still have a rough edge, but I look forward to seeing his further growth.

jorgemhz This animated short from Vladimir Bellini gave me a very nice and enjoyable moment while watching at it. The textures, soft colors, spontaneity and naivety on the drawings make the whole thing a beautiful work recommendable for all ages and audiences. I hope to hear soon again from this young artist. This short was shown at Buenos Aires' independent films festival (BAFICI) a couple of months ago, and as far as I know is going to be shown in brief in festivals in Venezuela and Spain. Another thing to put on relevance was the very nice incidental music on it, coming from another Bellini, who succeeded to make a peaceful track which elegantly accompanies the story. The minimalistic harbor ambient sounds (from seagulls and ships) are delightfully mixed to give the final touch for these beautiful two and a half minutes.
