MR NIGHT HAS A DAY OFF - short film from Ignas Meilunas on Vimeo.
I chose this animation because of the quirkiness of it. It intrigued me the way they used 2D and 3D environment together. The music is quite simple in this animation. Quite nonchalant and chilled, seemingly curious as the character Mr Night goes through the town turning things into night/dark things. I think adding the different sound effects in like the coffee splash, the dog bark, the bike etc really sets the tone of the animation and makes it more fun to watch. Like he really is interacting with the things around him. The music reflects on the atmosphere of the animation, in that there is no harsh theme or imagery, just something fun.

The other animation I have chosen is Futher by Kai Chang. I chose this one because of how different it is from the other. The theme is dark and disturbing and the music reflects that. The music comes in and out, with added silence in between, this adds to the tense nature of the animation and the music is timed very skillfully. The sound effects of the smashing, the drops, really add to the atmosphere of the piece and seem to echo around. The music picks up pace and tempo around the middle when they are fighting to show the change of drama and makes your heart race.
