Great little animation. I downloaded the HD mp4 file for my media center. My son’s going to love this.
Those are some serious ‘Pixar purple’ shadows
I would agree that it is very derivative of the Pixar style. Well done, though. The music could just about have been from The Incredibles, but I guess in that case it was already an homage to MI anyway.
Cute and well done. But aren’t pidgeons’ eyes red?
Peck peck peck.
Yes, let us debate factual inaccuracies in a cartoon. It is offensive the way they are always butchering their portrayal of real life and doing it by hiding under the “artistic license” banner.
This loophole in the legal system MUST be closed.
You know you’ve owned too much in Civ4 if you recognize the city-capture screaming soundbite in the background.
Great short, though!
It’s fun and all, but why is it that just because something is 3D CG it has to deliberately break suspension of disbelief instead of bending it? The concept of a nuclear briefcase that is also an aircraft and weapons platform is just stupid. And it certainly wouldn’t be designed to be operational while the lid is closed, or interpret the thoughts of an inexplicably sentient pigeon to target a bagel.
Just because something is far-fetched doesn’t give it an excuse to be inconsistent. I think with a little cleverness you could get a lot more mileage out of a short involving a pigeon that unwittingly flirts with mass slaughter– using just a plain old fashioned red-button nuclear briefcase.
Evil pigeon like the look great work
