Welcome aboard The Ark

alain — Tue, 14 Aug 2007 20:43:55 +0000

An unknown virus has destroyed almost the entire human population. Oblivious to the true natre of the disease, the only remaining survivors escape to the sea. In great ships, they set off in search of uninhabited land. So begins the exodus, led by one man…

The short movie The Ark takes you to a dark world where fear for the virus dominates. You can feel the tension and in the trailer below you can see part of the superb animation. Grzegorz Jonkajtys and Marcin Kobylecki, the creators of The Ark, already received several big prices. Only last week they won the award Best of Show at the Siggraph festival. Who knows, maybe they will receive a nomination for best animated short for the 80th edition of the Academy Awards.
