The timeless tale of what happens when two characters, one with  a scythe, meet upon an infinite colorless plane.

This is my first animated short, remastered  in high definition!

This is the late night brain storm between me and my buddy Sean Branson.  I had been sketching these little cloaked stick figures in my Linear Algebra class for a semester and wanted to animate them.  But what would they do?  A bottle of Vodka, and a month later this little 1 minute 11 second thing was done.  The sound isn't that great, but I am a visual guy with a radio shack mic.

This is the directors cut I guess, it is one second longer than the original I made in 2002.  Recently I re-rendered the scenes in a high-def wide screen format and touched up a few animation problems.   This ended up being a quick test of what a HD workflow might be, and I pass the results to you.

If anyone out there wants to take a crack at a new soundtrack let me know.  If it sucks less than mine I'll drop it in and add your name to the credits.

Comments:
A ... animation.
