Fried Pictures “Defending The Nature”

I really love the dark and eery atmosphere in the first 30 seconds of “Defending The Nature,” a new spot from Serbian studio Fried Pictures.

The end doesn’t really do it for me, but maybe that’s because I have no idea what the voiceover is saying. And does anyone else find the sound design to be a little over the top? Or is that just me?

Oh whatever, it’s beautifully done and full of compositions worth drooling over. The mechano-organic characters are also cleverly realized and help create a sense of narrative that really buoys the piece.

Hello,

thanx to Justin and Motionographer for posting our piece, and excuses for not providing aditional info for better understanding.
Anyway, the piece is done for biennal art event in Panchevo in Serbia with a theme of preserving the environment and nature, as for Panchevo being the most polluted town in Serbia. The whole event draws its inspiration from Joseph Beyus work in Kassel ‘7000 oaks’, and therefore we created our dark vision.
Green cross logo of the Panchevo biennale served for a symbolic ending.
The voiceover says: Twelveth biennal of Art – Panchevo, Defending the Nature, 2nd – 30th september 2006.

sweet! Yea its a cool spot, well done and animated, a big pum pum. I dont get the little thing cutting the pipe, is that like the little heroe that comes to save us by cutting all the pipes or is that just one of the working machines?

anyway, super cool a good 9 out of 10 points in my book.

Suminator,
I just saw film title “Sedam i po” from Fried pictures web site.
You haven’t seen “Kiss, kiss, bang, bang” movie title created by “Prologue films”?!?
I guess you did.
