“Bear And Bird” by Hornet

  By

A really nicely animated piece by Brookyln based Hornet

Bear & Bird is about two best friends, a laid back brown bear who just wants to take it easy and an overly excited cardinal who’s one cup of coffee away from a nervous breakdown. When a long-awaited video game finally arrives in the mail, the duo settles in for a marathon gaming session. They trade wins and losses until Bird is quickly overcome by a foul odor emanating from his pal. When Bird can’t take it anymore he demands that Bear take a much-needed bath. Never one for baths, Bear makes a run for it with Bird in hot pursuit. When the situation gets out of control, Bear is forced to decide between saving his friend or saving himself.

Charles X – Can You Do it

  By

Music video directed for the charismatic LA-born musician Charles X for his eagerly anticipated new single entitled Can You Do It in mixed 3D/2D animation produced by Eddy and animated at Brunch Studio.

From the animator:

This collaboration is intended to act as a social commentary which aims to cast light on perceived societal expectations and social norms by integrating elements and people from different walks of life.

I sought to merge the typically highbrow sport of horse racing with the commonly misrepresented “mean streets” of Pacoima, the proud birthplace of Charles X, to challenge any stereotypes or preconceptions of race and social class which may exist in modern day society.

I wanted to communicate Charles’ intended message via the lens of an artificial world in my own style of animation.

“Can You Do It” is now available on Charles X’s new album, “Sounds of the Yesteryear”:
