gerbil Posted April 9, 2006 (edited) Haven't been watching much TV, but whenever I seem to turn SBS on there's been a top quality animation happening. Caught the end of The Mysterious Geographic Explorations of Jasper Morello a few weeks back. It's an amazing short animation (at least the part I saw), it's hard to describe but I highly recommend people try and source it, quite a unique style. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0469146/ Last night I caught the end (again bah!) of a french animation, near on full synaesthesia occured ;). An incredibly beautiful claymation?/puppet, really quite intense, the part I caught was a stage like play, with a butterfly woman and lots of paper like butterfly specimens. Really haunting and psychedelic, extremely moving IMO. The soundtrack complimented the visuals to perfection. It was the last film shown on SOS, which is a short film program started at 11:10pm (Saturday), I must have caught the last 10 minutes or so. edit: THE BUTTERFLY WOMAN http://www.sbs.com.au/whatson/index.php3?progdate=08:04:2006 http://www.unifrance.org/films/detail_film...002&cfilm=24247 Top job by SBS screening these things, always the best source for unique wackiness.

prier Posted April 11, 2006 I used to love watching Eat Carpet, but being on a saturday night at the time it was, it was hard to get in front of the TV. SOS is basically just Eat Carpet isn't it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Francois le Danque Posted April 11, 2006 i dont think i ever watched eat carpet but SOS is good. however i would like to take this opportunity to tell everyone what i think of another sbs animation. 'medusa's first date'......is CRAP. SBS has played it like 4 times and it's so bad it makes me sick. YUUUUCK. JUST STOP IT RIGHT NOW. alright. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
