Recently I've been getting pretty excited by a lot of animations and massively curious about how they've been made. After looking into process a bit more it seems that most of them have used AfterEffects and hand drawn elements. Ideally over summer I'd like to get stuck into making a short animation or ever a few depending on how smooth things go. Below are a few that have really tickled my pickle.
"A Kiss From Tokyo" Theatrical trailer from Stephane coedel on Vimeo.
A Kiss From Tokyo - Kevin Dart
I'm a massive fan of Dart's illustrations anyway so to see them moving is even better.
Between Bears from Eran Hilleli on Vimeo.

Winner of best animation award at Vimeo's first film festival, amazing use of music and characters.
