Vera Bee’s Snow-Bo


Sometimes when you are trawling the infinite ocean that is the inter-web, you come across a little treasure that makes you wonder how on earth you missed them first time around. This is one of those cases!

It’s a simple tale of a lonely little boy in search of a playmate with a good dash of darkness thrown in for good measure! Cute, enchantingly naive animation style with a great sense for comedy timing.

Created by Vera Brosgol and her buddy Jenn Kluska whilst in their final year at Sheridan College. Make sure you stop by her website for some lovely concept art.

nobrain: TF1 Holiday IDs

tf1-xmas

As a follow up to the smashing TF1 IDs we shared here last month, Paris-based nobrain created Christmas themed versions packed with as much charm and wit as the previous bunch. This group is a bit more comical than the others, but no less detailed. It’s amazing how much time and care nobrain poured into these little 5-second wonders.

Oh, and if you’re as curious as I was, “PUB” is short for “publicité,” or “commericials” in English. In France, many channels announce commercial breaks, which is not only a courteous way to treat your viewers, it also gives networks a chance to brand themselves a bit. Neat.

(Thanks for the explanation, Charles!)
