Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle (TMNT) - Teaser Trailer
A teaser trailer for the cg animated Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) movies has been realeased. This is apparently a return to the original comic book design from Mirage Studio's Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird. The original 1984 comic was borderline adult, with the kind of off-color jokes and occasional bloodletting.

Human Space Invaders
Guillaume Reymond and his collaborators at NOTsoNOISY created this amazing stop-motion video of space invaders. Sixty-seven people act as the "pixels." The three minute video took 4 hours to film. It was a project for the festival Belluard Bollwerk International earlier this month in Fribourg, Switzerland. Last year, the group produced a similar piece based on Pong.

Elephants Dream
Just watched this short film:
Elephants Dream is the world’s first open movie, made entirely with open source graphics software such as Blender, and with all production files freely available to use however you please, under a Creative Commons license.
The short film was created by the Orange Open Movie Project studio in Amsterdam during 2005/2006, bringing together a diverse team of artists and developers from all over the world. More about the project...
I found this version on Google Video but the downloadable DVD is probably much better
I really enjoy the style, I hope these guys make a full length feature soon.
