3. Ottawa International Animation Festival 2010

I had a great time at this year’s Ottawa International Animation Festival. I managed to squeeze in more screenings than I had in the past, and managed to see just about everything, but still left wanting more.

My favourite film of the festival, David O’Reilly’s The External World took home the grand prize for short animation. It’s a shame there’s no preview or trailer available online, but you can check out David’s Vimeo account to see some of his other work.

Phil Mulloy’s Goodbye Mister Christie nabbed the grand prize for best feature. I was less enthusiastic about this film. Here’s a look at its predecessor, 2006’s The Christies:

At an hour and a half, you can imagine how taxing this can be on one’s patience. By the end, the audience I was with let out exasperated laughs at every new scene as if to say, “it’s not over yet?” It’s bizarre, puzzling, and yet oddly hypnotic and funny. It touches on some interesting philosophical questions, but grand prize material? I’m not sure. 

My choice for best feature is Keita Kurosaka’s Midori-Ko. The film takes place in a future Tokyo that is on the verge of starvation. Drawn with pencil, the film is equal parts Miyazaki and Cronenberg:

5. OReilly and Klassen take on U2

Super talents David OReilly and Jon Klassen teamed up to produce this jewel of a video for U2’s new single, “I’ll Go Crazy If I Don’t Go Crazy Tonight”. Beautiful!

6. Please Say Something

I enjoyed this stylish, Krazy Kat-esque, and somewhat upsetting animated short from David O’Reilly: Please Say Something.
