The Box Man

Published on Jun 16, 2014

A man encounters a mysterious cardboard box. I made this film a long time ago. In may ways it is reflection on a culture of observation and fear which still seems relevant today. Let me know what you think it is about in the comments.

Written, directed, and animated by Nirvan Mullick. The film is based on a 1974 Kobo Abe novel called The Box Man. Shot on 35mm, this was my CalArts thesis film; it took me over 3 years to finish. Official Selection Cannes Cinefondation, Winner AFI Fest 2002 Audience Award & Special Jury Prize

Monday Classic - King Kong makes his appearance (1933)

Uploaded by YouTuber Movieclips

Published on Dec 28, 2016

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Ann (Fay Wray) is sacrificed by the island's natives to be Kong's new bride.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
The film introduces us to flamboyant, foolhardy documentary filmmaker Carl Denham (Robert Armstrong), who sails off to parts unknown to film his latest epic with leading lady Darrow in tow. Disembarking at Skull Island, they stumble on a ceremony in which the native dancers circle around a terrified-looking young girl, chanting, "Kong! Kong!" The chief (Noble Johnson) and witch doctor (Steve Clemente) spot Denham and company and order them to leave. But upon seeing Ann, the chief offers to buy the "golden woman" to serve as the "bride of Kong." Denham refuses, and he and the others beat a hasty retreat to their ship. Late that night, a party of native warriors sneak on board the ship and kidnap Ann. They strap her to a huge sacrificial altar just outside the gate, then summon Kong, who winds up saving Ann instead of devouring her. Kong is eventually taken back to New York, where he breaks loose on the night of his Broadway premiere, thinking that his beloved Ann is being hurt by the reporters' flash bulbs. Now at large in New York, Kong searches high and low for Ann (in another long-censored scene, he plucks a woman from her high-rise apartment, then drops her to her death when he realizes she isn't the girl he's looking for). After proving his devotion by wrecking an elevated train, Kong winds up at the top of the Empire State Building, facing off against a fleet of World War I fighter planes.

Battery Life - A short film and a behind-the-scenes

Battery Life is a stop motion short film that tells a story of determination, self-sacrifice, and deceit. Set in a dystopian desert landscape, a robot family, through the test of tragedy, discovers a dark secret hidden behind the doctrine of a preacher.

Battery Life is our introduction. A film to say, “Here we are.” We are a team of people willing and able to work hard for something we believe in, something we think is really cool. And we did just that. On a budget of only $5000 (crowdfunded and out of pocket), we created this ten minute, thirty-five second stop motion film.

A Skittles motion my friend and I made for our Art & Technology Class using Stop Motion Animation. It took about 8 hours of taking photos and over 400 photos, not to mention a couple thousand Skittles.
