Head Gear

I've been exploring the web site of a company called Head Gear. In particular I like this short commercial for a job search web site, its so simple. I was joking in my 3D class how you can make some great animation with a Blob like character or a Mr Worm or something, this is a great example of how you can still communicate an idea with a simple character design. Its the first time a clip on the net has made me laugh out loud for a while.

I also like this film/video clip. It combines vector based stuff (Flash?) with 3D and photo textures. The power of modern compositing software is truly changing the face of animation, five or so years back this would have been a major technical challenge.
