Theres a Man in the Woods

Share Collapse

This was my final film at CalArts and it was based loosely on a rumor that spread around my elementary school. I used flash for the animation and photoshop for the background painting.

This short is really nice.

An incredible animation!
For something that was made for a school project the animation is very well done and the colors are very well done with a very variable color palette.
The effort you put into this animation can be clearly seen and that is something very good
The voice is very good and gives the work even more credibility.
A very good animation, congratulations.

This is one of my all time favorite student films. Most are great, but this piece goes above and beyond.
It has really visually stunning and iconic scenes and characters, beautiful animation quality and fitting sound design and music. The voice for the main character was young sounding, but it still works. I love the pacing, writing and overall storytelling with a nursery rhyming theme since it takes place in an elementary school. The subtle details like sids facial expressions, the sounds of the car as the teacher gets out, and when he leaves the staff room we see sids moms reaction. There's a reason viewers still remember this cartoon years later.

Theres a man in the woods is timeless.
