Not Rumplestiltskin

They've had a project at Walt Disney Animation Studios that I haven't uttered a peep about. But Disney animator Patrick Osborne says:

We’re finishing up a rather exciting project [titled "Ppaperman"] at Disney in the next few weeks. It’s been keeping me pretty busy and away from this blog. The short, Directed by John Kahrs will be heading out there sometime next year.

We’re very proud of this one and can’t wait to show the world. ...

They should be proud. Because the look of it is terrific, and unlike anything else out there.

I've had the good fortune to be shown clips of the piece referenced above for the last several months. Nobody can tell me when it will be released, but I imagine that the Mouse won't sit on it very long.

Watch for it. (Rope of Sand references the project here.)

I've seen it. It's OK technically, but really boring as entertainment. The animation is very uneven. Nothing special.

To the first hater ^
Holeeeey bat shit! I didn't know Nostradamus trolled the TAG blog! Glad to know you your soul is so dark, bitter and small that you're compelled to run out ahead of the crowd to take a shit on something that even the crew hasn't seen. Did they have a special sneak preview at Assholes Anonymous?

Seriously dude!? I feel bad for you because I know you are sitting at home on your computer, useless, no talent, bitter that you can't find work. Good luck in life, you need it.

I saw a few clips and it's mind-blowing. The first anon doesn't know jack. Is the technique used in this short also going to be used in Ron and John's new movie?

To the first Anonymous - Wow! The animation must be stellar then -- "even" animation is the thing we all try to avoid. Can't wait to see the finished product!

The first poster is probably one of these guys:

It's certainly more interesting from a technical point if view than an artistic one.
