Saw this today and had to post and share. To pull this off however, is not just the monitors, but also the sound, animation, overall presentation, including the flickering lights. A very nice effect that you'll find interesting.
Looks fun.
Particle animation used for Cadbury Dairy Milk aired during the 2012 London Olympics. The particle trails created by the athletes' movements generates interesting and unique designs inherent to the unique event. Very nice to look at, making me want to see more. I forgot it was a candy commercial, did you?
The animation was created by the talented crew from Piranha Bar, Dublin Ireland. Check their website, and you might find that you recognize a lot of pieces they've created.

Iron Man 3, seems like Tony Stark gets into more trouble recovering from the affects of the The Avengers. A darker version where it seems that the suits turn on him.
Premiering in April.
Julien displays some fantastic work in both his films and commercial venues and a wide variety of examples. Pay close attention to his breakdowns, design and layout.
A snippet from the letter sent to Alumni regarding The Shrunkenheadman Club's petition to become its own department at San Jose State University. Speaking as a former president of the club (1996), and being familiar with its humble roots, its so inspiring to see the program grow to its current active state. The spirit that permeates those walls is incredible and is simply inspiring.

Yesterday will forever be remembered in Shrunkenheadman history. On Monday, September
10th, 2012, students, parents, and alumni rallied together in a march to iconic Tower Hall
to request more academic space and petition to make the Animation/Illustration Program a
bonafide department. President Qayoumi was not in his office when we arrived; however,
we were able to deliver a formal letter addressed to the President, along with a petition to
make Animation/Illustration a department, to Dorothy Poole, the President’s Chief of Staff.
The petition featured over 3,500 signatures and included personal comments from alumni
and industry allies from across the United States. A camera from the NBC News Team and
journalists from various papers were there to document our experience. Our story appeared
online in the Silicon Beat and was featured on the cover of the Spartan Daily.
We then walked to the office of Dean Vollendorf to deliver a copy of our letter and petition
addressed to the President. The Dean spoke briefly with a few of the officers and accepted our
documents. Unfortunately, she was not receptive to our requests and declined to meet with the
other students in the hallway. The march concluded with a final rally and clap on Tower Lawn.

For those of you who have graduated, please lend your voice and expertise into making this happen, and for those of you are in the program, don't stop. Keep drawing, keep animating, keep improving, keep moving. This is a great thing.
To see the caliber of work coming out of the school...their 2011 Showreel is below.
Fire it up guys!
This clips has definitely got the Frank Miller look and feel, but toned down quite a bit to look like a "normal" animated feature.
Appearing this holiday season - ha ha, we can't wait. If the picture below doesn't make you want to watch the movie, just stay home. Where else can you see Bowser, Zangief, M. Bison, and Pac Man ghosts (just to name a few) sitting in a support group. Genius!
Fire it up!
A visual effects clip by director Geoffrey Guiot that features superb lighting and texturing. The opening car sequence had me fooled - so slick. Thank for the breakdowns at the end.
Fire it up!
More eye candy for you to see - we simply can't get enough! Really nice to see a 4 minute trailer, hopefully it doesn't give away too much, but even if did, ya'll are still gonna watch the movie.

Enjoy!
Wow, this animated short is great. I can imagine the time spent in coordinating the entire sequence...a lot of work, but time well spent, this is a jewel. Great backgrounds, and unique look and feel combining a toon shader with hand painted/rendered textures. Nice sound too. Thanks for sharing Billy!
Firing It Up! Here we go!
This looks and feels way different from the first two installments, and as I watch, without knowing story, I wonder what looks to be a prison / arena shot below, and why the football field is collapsing, its just nuts! The entire trailer, dark and subtle is great to see.
Enjoy and Fire It Up!
No wonder I get creepy feelings when I'm around old dolls. We need more "creepy" animations.
Ah something to look forward to this summer, and for those of you who are too young to know that this is a remake, here is the trailer from the 1990 version. I remember liking the story back then, we sure have improved as far as vfx goes.
