wood / stay home

Friday, January 20th, 2012


Caleb Wood created this subtle and powerful hand painted animation for his degree project at RISD. It is reminiscent of the opening of Akira Kurosawa’s ‘Rashomon‘- but with a dog and cat. It really shows just how much can be communicated, using the most basic of materials, through hands-on artistry, great compositions and sound.

Hornet / Christmas Index Express

Tuesday, December 20th, 2011



Director Peter Sluszka of Hornet Films has taken animation to the next virtual dimension with this scoping and dynamic project for PNC. Based on the song ‘the Twelve Days of Christmas,’ the animation is part of an elaborate interactive website that lightheartedly teaches us about economics by tracking the fluctuating prices of the twelve sets of gifts from the classic carol. Beyond entertaining, it will be used as a teaching aid in schools across the country.
