Christopher Hinton - Nibbles (2003) 

We watched a few short films by Chris Hinton in today’s animation class. This was my favorite. We went through a couple of sections of this one frame by frame to realize how he expresses SO much in such a minimal way, and we talked about a few techniques he employs. I love the crazy sketchy style of his work. It’s incredibly energetic. It made me think of my scriptwriting class because one of the things that makes scriptwriting difficult is that you are required to be very minimal; you have to figure out ways to set up situations and interactions so that much is assumed and understood without explicitly being written.
