Logorama is an Oscar nominated short film in which every character and pretty much every piece of the landscape is made from some popular logo. It starts off innocently enough but then turns violent with a heavy dose of profanity and other PG-13 elements. I loved it. You will too. You can find out more on the film’s official site and you can watch the entire short below.

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010Pivot
Friday, April 2nd, 2010Pivot is a short foreign film with no dialog. It hasn’t won any awards that I am aware of. It hasn’t even made it into IMDB. Nevertheless I think it is a good short film that is worth watching. Here’s the synopsis: ‘When a man is witness to a murder and takes pictures of the killer, he has to run for his life. During the chase he is able to turn the tables and the prey becomes the hunter. All resulting in an unfortunate ending.’ Enjoy!
Consent
Friday, February 5th, 2010Consent is a cute short film that plays on the fact that two people should thoroughly discuss sex before actually doing the deed. How thorough? Well you’ll see just as two young adults lean in for the kiss. The language is rather suggestible so don’t play this in front of the kiddies. The film has written and directed by Jason Reitman and won a couple of awards. It’s easily worth a few moments of your time.
Alma
Monday, December 21st, 2009Alma is another award winning short film that is available to watch online for a limited time. It’s beautifully animated and while it’s written and directed outside of the U.S., there are no language barriers because this film has no words. It’s got a lot of dolls in it and if you ever thought they were creepy, this just might explain why.
