A bit late but I really love this guy’s work. I look forward to seeing him in Annecy again!

This trailer is for the much anticipated (by me) series that is a sequel to the Avatar: The Last Airbender series.

There’s some great morph animation in this ad, very smooth stuff. I’d love to be able to tell you what medium this is. To me it looks like CG paying homage to Stop Motion (a la Flushed Away), but I could be totally wrong. Any information on the artists/studio involved would be nice so I can give credit where it’s due.

Update: Tom Mathieson has informed me the studio behind this ad is Nexus Productions.

The Nation’s Favorite bedtime story is being brought to life in an all star beautiful adaptation of the best-selling book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. The Guffalo debuts on BBC One this Christmas and comes to DVD in time for Easter 2010. The film’s all-star voice cast features Robbie Coltrane as the Gruffalo; Helena Bonham Carter as the narrator; Rob Brydon as the Snake; James Corden as the Mouse; John Hurt as the Owl and Tom Wilkinson as the Fox. The Gruffalo tells the magical tale of a mouse who takes a walk through the woods in search of a nut. Encountering three predators who all wish to eat him a fox, an owl and a snake the plucky mouse has to use his wits to survive, creating an imaginary monster who then turns out to be only too real.

This never-before-seen video remixes rare retro footage from Disney’s ground-breaking 1955 “Man and the Moon” TV program.

Keep in mind these ideas were presented about 55 years ago. Nice to see a younger looking Ward Kimball.

I’m a little late to the party on this one. You may have already seen this elsewhere. Sam Ellis tipped me off to these great layouts to He-Man, a major part of my child hood. I had to post these for nostalgia reasons alone. Luckily they’re also pretty nice to look at too. Click the image to see lots more.

Andy Latham helped my dumb ass track this down. Thanks Andy!

Last week I saw a special on Disney Pixar on the South Bank Show which I’d love to share, but couldn’t find it online. Keep your eyes peeled, it’s a great special.

I’ve see a lot of these on TV recently and have been meaning to share them. The first two have a great stop-motion feel to them.
