This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

"Tiger Tiger, burning bright..." This short is such a stupendous work of art, I've really never come across anything else quite like it yet! It is unusual, but for me the skillful mix of live-action puppetry, as well as animation both hand-drawn and computerised, was quite an awesome one. The puppetry of the "Tyger" itself is brilliant and is what makes the whole short work. To me I didn't think it hurt the effect at all the way you could clearly see the shadowed figures of the puppeteers for the entire duration, in fact I thought it enhanced it, how you could see them operating the complex model and making movements that were very impressively similar to those of the real life stalking animal, I found it fascinating. My favourite part of that stuff was right at the end when they make it rear up and roar, just brilliant stuff. To hear about it like this, it probably sounds a bit silly, but I found the overall effect to be blooming glorious! I guess it perhaps should be scary, as I think it's supposed to be some kind of an apocalyptic event as a gargantuan tiger god thingy passes through Tokyo(?) and leaves a trail of magical floral chaos in its wake that transforms any humans that are caught up in its shadow into animal reflections of their inner selves...but it's actually really beautiful, like a parade, there's a bit of a Mardi Gras thing going on, but not so flamboyant, more magnificent. It's like a gift from a very scary but benevolent god of nature! Very odd and different, but a fearsomely fantastic short that's so visually colourful and vibrant that it's sure to brighten up the mood of anyone who comes across it, so you should check it out. See ya!

Inspired by one of the poems written by William Blake ("The Tiger"), this animated short is an impressive visual fest, making an incredibly good combination of puppetry, illustration, photography and CGI.In many ways, "Tyger" feels pretty much like a music video: Rather than telling a story in a conventional manner, this short turns music into animation. The aesthetic of the designs is pretty stylish, with a flawless atmosphere and great sceneries.This short animation was very captivating from beginning to end, with a wonderful visual aspect, which is more than enough to make this a totally worth-watching experience.

My husband and I DVRed this from IFC, and my one-month old baby was in the room and he was absolutely MESMERIZED by it. Whenever he's cranky, if we put this on, it completely soothes him. It's aesthetically nice to look at, I thought it was interesting how it has such an effect on my baby. I can't say I personally understand it, but perhaps the baby has a better understanding of it than I do. :-) I guess the baby found it aesthetically fascinating! An interesting short, worth checking out. And if you've got a fussy little baby on your hands, DVR Tyger to see if it works for you, too. One of the better shorts that I've seen on IFC.

This short animated film from Brazil is a strange one, like many in the collection of "Animation Show" DVDs. However, that's part of why it is in the collection: it's different, it's original, it gets your attention and offers unique visuals. Many times the story is very short or even non-existent, as I think it is here, unless I missed it.A big puppet, being walked through a big city area, turns people into insects, fish, birds or animals whenever he passes by them. The tiger is being moved by three shadowy human figures while the people are in animated form. It's different.What I liked just as much as the visuals was the music of Zeroum, which offers a driving beat to the story..
