Production values in a completely superior league in this heat; the only team which demonstrated an ability to transition between camera views smoothly. Good sound quality.
Great acting and loved the animated team logo at the end!
Personally i didn't like the story (just personal preference) but it was original. It kind of felt like "Perfume: The story of a murder"
If only Syd had a Trade Me account - all those poor kitties might be ok.
A guy invents a Fabricator which only works when you feed cats into it. They are then turned into interesting trinkets such as coffee cups or Star Trek toys. Visually this film is stunning - an incredible art department, brilliant make-up, and beautiful cinematography. Great dark tone and some fine acting too. The end shot though, while highlighting some sweet aging, might not have been the best fullstop for this awesome film.
4.5 / 5
This oddball short was about a man who invented a machine that converts cats into cups, and he goes on a lifelong mission to 'catnap' every moggy from the region to feed his contraption. The first point to note is that I don't think it was especially true to the genre. Even though we get to see the character as a young and old guy, it makes no difference to the story whatsoever. It may as well been two weeks passed, not forty years. Three separate stories about different parts of his life is probably what this genre needed.
That aside, I still give the short 4 out of 5 because it was done in a very good way. A lovely "Amelie" style musical opening set the scene, with good acting and superb costume/make-up throughout. The machine itself also looked good, for what was plainly tinfoil and LED's.
Good job everyone involved
