Here because of a Casual Geographic recommendation, this is both bizarrely and beautifully animated. I look forward to watching more of your work as a new subscriber.
I remember 20 years ago you had to sit through extremely mid animation festival collections to eventually see something this Excellent. Now indie animators are on a whole other level of talent
I absolutely love how well this portrays the abstract kind of Australian aethstetic I had growing up with the colours and sounds and characters, it captures it in such a familiar way it’s scary.
I find it quite humorous that the line the frog says in that scene is the only spoken dialog in the film and is the only thing displayed when captions are turned on.
Okay, did anyone see that among the "supported by" names there was freaking ALEX HIRSCH??? Aka the creator of Gravity Falls!? And there's Pendleton Ward, the creator of Adventure Time!
Cme here from Casual Geographic and I DO NOT REGRET IT! this was so good, especially after the added context he gave about the tasmanian wildlife! I'm especially into the sound design here its so genius
What I love most about this is how it showcases digital animation. Digital animation often gets unfairly maligned when compared to classical animation. Here we can see the use of blur and distortion effects to beautifully accentuate many of the movements and actions, while colour math helps give the pond water a wonderful murky appearance. It's a composed and assembled so seamlessly to achieve visuals that conventional animation wouldn't be able to accompish. Also, you got to love the showcase of Australian wildlife. Marsupial representation ✊!
Well not quite, it's just a symbiosis between the species. The frog helps to protect the spider's eggs and the spider protects the frog from harm. Somethings may want to mess with a frog but no one wants to mess with a hairy, eight-legged beastie the size of a dinnerplate
At first I thought the spider was gonna eat the frog but then they just had a tea party instead. You have no idea how much joy that little scene gave me
I like that the spider has a moustache under his pedipalps. And the little wave the spider gives his new frog buddy when he moves him off back home. Strangely wholesome. No where else do you see the spider being such a sweet character.
My science teacher wanted to know what our favorite movie was in school, and me, being a person who doesn’t like movies very much decided to put in this film. In doing that, i got my science teacher to watch all of your shorts. She loved it :)
the sound design makes even the smallest objects in this feel tangible. overwhelmingly pleasing. like being in third grade and sticking your hands in a jar of beads
Bold of you to say that the satisfaction of sticking your hand in a jar of beads is limited to third graders Be free Stick your hand in a jar of beads any time you want _Nobody can stop you_
I feel like there's some message here about taking advantage of/exploiting/stealing someone's creative spark/works. leaving them behind an empty husk while the exploiter that does not understand the creative struggle/process bastardizes it into what they think will get them renown/recognition. And then everyone else is just cool with it because they're getting their entertainment until it happens to them/one of theirs. While the karma is that those with a creative spark never really lose it, they just re-imagine it through their suffering. Or it's just about a guy who likes poking frogs because he's a big weirdy, who knows
I think Felix just started messing around with sounds and decided to make a story about it. Either way, your interpretation of the video makes watching the video again really interesting.
Took me halfway through and a channel check to realize that this beautifully trippy animation was familiar! It's been a long while since I've seen work done by this channel, and i didn't even know it still made these animation! But I'm glad it dose, even if this was only made three years ago, kt brings me back much further.
yea, especially if you pay attention to the scene where he switches hands to find his watch, and he aves good bye to the frog, who actually was holding a cup of tea when it was in that cabin with Spider, and they enjoyed some dead flies together!
The part where the cat turned and hissed at the possum tripped me out. It was almost as if the possum went from some benign creature that is merely experimenting with music, to some crazy murderer who’s secretly stealing voice boxes from all the animals, they just don’t know it
@@mokeenoch7900 i dont think thats all there is to it. Its like if the possum was ripping out the animals' throats and using them in their own twisted experiments.

I keep coming back to this wonderful story and love letter to Tasmania's flora and fauna :-) You can tell that Felix Colgrave loves his home, extant and extinct, and how much it influences his art in the best of ways
Considering how the cat found that the possum was responsible for stealing everyone's voice, it feels like a setup for a sequel following the little voice thief getting away but losing the voices and trying to track them down one at a time
Oh, I didn't realise that's what the cat was yelling about. I just thought it was funny that the cat, while tearing out a lorikeet's throat, was pointing the finger at someone else
Not likely, if you take a look at 7:07 the sky is filled with falling voices. This could imply that the possum-like creature threw it all away or that the cat and the rest of the animal crew made the possum get rid of the voices.
I think that everyone knew what the voices were and how the Witch makes music. Cat only cared because everyone cares only about their kind: they despise who they eat and hate who eats them. Taking a voice from someone they feel empaty to, though! You filthy cruel criminal
he went all out with the spider joke. the fact that it, a, has a moustache, b, politely invited the frog to his house for a chat, and c, politely escorted him out and waved him goodbye, when there's a spider called a social huntsman in Australia is just genius. also the fact he kind of forgot where his watch was is another clever joke. These are the kinds of jokes you expect from Colgrave
also the fact that frogs and tarantulas can sometimes have symbiotic relationships, where the frog prevents insects from eating the tarantulas eggs and in return the tarantula protects the frog
Also the cat with the dead bird in its paws seems like it’s based off the huge feral cat population in Australia that is killing off a huge chunk of the natural wildlife and bird population.

couldnt have said it better
I had a feeling that the spider wasn't going to kill it
Its because frogs and spiders in real life are capable of helping each other. Strange, isn't it?
This reminds me of the cinamini monster episode of chowder this was absolutely mesmerizing
7:43 I immediately turned on the subtitle wishing to hear the first script ever written in his animation
I love all of this, but I almost died when the frog scolded the person after stealing his voice at 7:37. That was funny!
I think he said “Hey look at me I love poking frogs because I’m a weenie”

It felt so good to see

It looks adorable ikr :)

Considering how the cat found that the possum was responsible for stealing everyone's voice, it feels like a setup for a sequel following the little voice thief getting away but losing the voices and trying to track them down one at a time
Oh, I didn't realise that's what the cat was yelling about. I just thought it was funny that the cat, while tearing out a lorikeet's throat, was pointing the finger at someone else
Not likely, if you take a look at 7:07 the sky is filled with falling voices. This could imply that the possum-like creature threw it all away or that the cat and the rest of the animal crew made the possum get rid of the voices.
@@Holgast I'm pretty sure that was an orange-bellied parrot, not a lorikeet
There's a cat voice in the hat, that's what the cat is angry about I think.
I think that everyone knew what the voices were and how the Witch makes music. Cat only cared because everyone cares only about their kind: they despise who they eat and hate who eats them. Taking a voice from someone they feel empaty to, though! You filthy cruel criminal
Love it how the humble thylacine made not one but 2 appearances.
The last part with the frog has me cracking up! I love your animations!
That was mildly unnerving, but still very enjoyable. The “joke” where the spider had to find his watch on his third try made my day
I have just realised that

I was like: "reminds me of Australia"
Then I see the black cackatoos and, well
Specifically, Tasmania
pretty sure Felix is an aussie.
At the end he acknowledges the Boon Wurrung people and their land, which encompasses much of Melbourne
Felix Colgrave is nothing short of genius.
Beautiful, colorful, patterns left after the black wax is scraped from reality. Nice work.
he went all out with the spider joke. the fact that it, a, has a moustache, b, politely invited the frog to his house for a chat, and c, politely escorted him out and waved him goodbye, when there's a spider called a social huntsman in Australia is just genius. also the fact he kind of forgot where his watch was is another clever joke. These are the kinds of jokes you expect from Colgrave
also the fact that frogs and tarantulas can sometimes have symbiotic relationships, where the frog prevents insects from eating the tarantulas eggs and in return the tarantula protects the frog
The part with the watch is one of the most original artistic thoughts I've seen in a long time
I thought he was going to eat the frog at first because he was rolling it away...
Also the cat with the dead bird in its paws seems like it’s based off the huge feral cat population in Australia that is killing off a huge chunk of the natural wildlife and bird population.
also the fact that they were bonding over a bowl of flies was great
“Bro these edibles ain’t shit”
5 minutes later:
you have to say those magic words for it to kick in
you can say that on any of his videos really
This is how I see reality to some levels sometimes.
5:27
That's Felix Colgrave for ya
7:42 its pretty fun idea that frog using his voice to insult him lol
Your worlds are so utterly magical and yet natural as well. Beautiful and strange. I love them so much and I cherish these glimpses into these worlds.
If this guy animated a game i definitely would buy it
It's not quite the same, but you might enjoy the Samarost games, or indeed any of the games from Amanita Design
@@zed1323 Thank you very very much for the recommendation man!!
Oh yes, I would too
The Longing
Oh my god I would buy this within a second of hearing colgrave and game in the same sentence.
