Claymation Plus!

November 2nd, 2008

Andrew Cahill is one of those former students I try to keep my eye on.  He creates animated films and has been ever since I knew him as a quiet sophomore in my English classroom.  He’d occassionally share his finished products with me, and when I first saw his Kent State film (a simple but moving line drawing film) I became a great fan.  It still remains my favorite.

For those of you working with students creating their own films with claymation, you’ll enjoy watching the following two films available now on YouTube.

The first, Spontaneous Generation, won Best Animated Film at the 2008 Ann Arbor Film festival last spring

Spontaneous Generation

And I love this new film which won the Guilt by Association Music Video Contest to the song, “Don’t Look Back in Anger” by Devendra Banhart

Don\’t Look Back in Anger

ENJOY!
