So, as a few of you may know last week i attended an Animated Short Film Festival, where they showed 66 Animated short clips in 2 parts. I only ended up staying for the first part which included the larger half of the shows. So I have a few favorites that I liked and I've tracked some of them down on the internet.

Remember that these things looks A LOT cooler on a huge big screen theater with awesome sound.

This one is called Code Hunters, by a group called Axis Animation. Its a pretty cool Short Film, done in this 3D cartoonish style. Everyone in the theater laughed at the bubble gum part.

The opening film was one called "90 Degrees" by some french guy, it was pretty abstract but i liked it. Has a very cool look to it, the website is kinda hard to navigate but you can find it here.

Easily my favorite movie was Fat Chance ? National Centre for Computer Animation it was absolutely hilaroius... I started laughing as soon as i saw the fat guy on the mororized scooter, and it only got better from there. Sadly I can't find a copy of it on the internet.. if i ever do though.. u guys need to see it! Its priceless. However i can provide you with this picture...

And here is the last film to make my list, mostly because it made Amanda, a co-worker that came with us, cry. Everyone laughed at the "trial" though.
