Drawing Inspiration short film

Tim McCourt and Wesley Louis, two fellow animators I met during a Central Saint Martins end of year show, just finished a really nice short film I encourage you to see.

‘A wino, resigned and stuck in his ways, finds mysterious sketches on the park bench that he visits every day. As these pictures stir his thoughts, he begins to notice the world around him and to reflect upon his own place within it. He meets a young boy whose innocent encouragement helps to release him from his self destructive social withdrawal and unlocks a part of his character that had been long forgotten.’

And here is the production blog, I am in love with the main character’s sculpture!

    Wow, some amazing animation here, and very subtle, damn refreshing and inspiring in comparison to the chase films students have bored me with.

    Thanks for putting that up mate.

    Hiya Olive, Lovely short, really freaking good too. Story & acting especially. And damn, that clay sculpture is darn inspiring.

  4. Karim, Wesley and Tim were at my birthday last year, too bad I didn’t introduce you. Wesley worked on the Illusionist
