Animated Short - This Wonderful Life
dfluke2 writes "It's been around for awhile, but Lian Kemp's This Wonderful Life is a very impressive animated short. Over at rendernode there is an interview with Lian, where additional background information can be found about the flick, including other plans for more animated movies. The author also features a gallery with photo shoot style images of the female actress from the short."

To all the people complaining that the models don't look 100% real:
THEY'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO.
If he wanted to make a real movie, using real people, he would have managed to do so in much less time, with much less effort by using... (surprise) real people.
The movie is about (artistically) capturing the most important elements of facial expression. RTFI(nterview).
Hopper's paintings look "realistic" without looking quite like photographs; if all you can think of when you look at them is "ah, I can see it's not a photograph, that shadow there should be slightly different", then you're missing the point.
