Just few minutes over five hours went by so quickly. The light and the brightness is gone and it's time for the dark stuff. I'll start with a gloomy one, just that you know, a lot of characters die in it. Sorry for spoiling that for you. But I simply love the cartoon style, the characters and the script. Not everything has to be 3D. Cartoon, 2D or mixing everything just a little bit is great too.
So sad for the princesses of all the different species.
Now that we started with killing characters, this is the logical next animation.
And now that we started sacrificing, this animation about logs is perfect.
Uh. Um. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for the logs.
Here's something completely different. Also no-one dies. And this possibly also is something you can relate. At least I can. Awkward is my middle name.
That was fun... kinda.
Again I'm switching to something completely different. Just because I think there hasn't been enough absolutely amazing CGI. The script is short and simple and fortunately so is the animation.
I feel that this could be a movie teaser or an animation company ad.
Now that the theme went back to the dark side, here's more of that.
And even darker. Also pointless.
Observations of wars and people in wars.
More observations. Finland mentioned.
That's enough. No more wars! No more violence! No more characters getting killed!
How about a nice gnome? Yes. A gnome it is.
Uh. Um. I'm sorry. I lied. Bad me. I won't do that again. Not today anyway. Here's the last animation for this years winter solstice.
Actually I recommend checking out the artists page because there's more of the same animation series and other series too. --> https://www.youtube.com/@PatrickSmithAnimation Sometimes you just find bright pearls from the YouTube abyss and animator Patrick Smith certainly is one of them.
Happy winter solstice everyone! Even if you actually right now are experiencing the quite opposite, longest day of the year over there where you live because that's okay, I'm not judging.
