A Unique Style of Animation: Jeremy Casper's Dried Up

Dried Up from Cecil on Vimeo.

I stumbled across this short recently and was pleasantly surprised. The animation is truly unique. It reminds me somewhat of Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas, but less dark. In the age of Pixar, it is rare to see this style any more. It is a short film that is worth the six minutes.



Jeremy Casper describes the short film:


"Dried Up is a story about the character of a person who through opposition is true to his own belief and character. He does what he knows he must do to bring life to a town even though others tell him it is pointless."
