The Me Bird

The short film “The Me Bird” is a free interpretation of the homonym poem by Pablo Neruda. The inspiration in the strata stencil technique helps conceptualize the repetition of layers as the past of our movements and actions. The frames depicted as jail and the past as a burden serve as the background for the story of a ballerina on a journey towards freedom. A diversified artistic experimentation recreates the tempest that connects bird and dancer.

A film by 18bis, a multidisciplinary design, animation & motion graphics studio.

The Astronomer’s Sun

Nightingales in December

This metaphorical surrealist tale is an allusion. Nightingales in December is a trip into the memories, and the fields of the current realities. What if the Nightingales were working, instead of singing and going south? Is the innocence the only savior of birds songs? There are no Nightingales in December… What is left, is only the history of our beginning, and our end.

Written, directed & animated by Theodore Ushev // Music: Spencer Krug.
