2020 Oscars Challenge: Best Animated Short Films

by

The front-runner for this year’s Best Animated Short is the Sony Animations short, “Hair Love,” which played in front of “The Angry Birds Movie 2” and later “Jumanji: The Next Level” and was also my personal favorite. Pixar has it’s own short in contention with “Kitbull.” The rest of the contenders are foreign entries.

As with most years, the front-runner for Best Animated Short is Pixar’s “Lou,” which played before “Cars 3” and addressed bullying on the playground. A few others I feel have a good chance are “Dear Basketball,” “Garden Party,” and “In A Heartbeat” as it looks like they are out of the box animations with some interesting subject matter. “Cradle” – Devon Manney (University of … Read More Oscars Shortlist: 10 Animated Shorts Shortlisted for 90th Academy Awards

SANJAY’S SUPER TEAM || Not only are Disney and Pixar known for representing in the Best Animated Feature with most of their releases, they also clean up when entered into the Best Animated Short category as well.

Not surprising at all is the fact that Pixar’s short, “Sanjay’s Super Team” is at the head of the pack for Best Animated Short. I’ve also heard “World Of Tomorrow” is quite good. Other than that, I have not seen any of these films and can pass no judgment, although I look forward to seeing all the ones that get nominated.

2013 Oscars Challenge: Short Film #4: Fresh Guacamole

by

FRESH GUACAMOLE The shortest animated film of the category, “Fresh Guacamole” uses stop animation to depict two hands making a dip out of the most random of objects like a bomb, dice, and Christmas lights. What is lacking from “Fresh Guacamole” is any sort of connection or emotions. Sure, these aren’t required to produce a successful short, but this short lacks ingenuity or originality, … Read More 2013 Oscars Challenge: Short Film #4: Fresh Guacamole

ADAM AND DOG Next to “Paperman”, this is my second favorite animated short of the year, depicting a curious dog roaming around a new world filled with dinosaurs and open fields, when he happens upon the first man, presumably Adam. They share their time together, keeping each other (silently) company until the first female (can we assume Eve) shows up. There are strong Biblical … Read More 2013 Oscars Challenge: Short Film #3: Adam And Dog

HEAD OVER HEELS Reminiscent of Pixar’s “Up”, “Head Over Heels” delivers a short animated film about an aging couple forced to live upside from one another. The love is dwindling in their relationship as they hurdle through space, but it takes some innovative thinking and a lot of heart to bring these two together. There were really too many parallels between this short and … Read More 2013 Oscars Challenge: Short Film #2: Head Over Heels
