An Eye for Annai

There are a handful of illustrations and animations over at Jonathan Klassen’s Burst of Beaden, but the animated short An Eye for Annai is worth the visit alone. Made by Jonathan Klassen and Daniel Rodrigues, it’s perhaps the most creative film I’ve yet see come out of Sheridan’s animation program.

    One of my personal favourites from the year…Once again, amazing stuff jon and dan…Too imaginative, too Unique, too original, too creative…..Simply too good…was amazing the first time..is still amazing now.

    Also Check out the team’s ( along with amazing McQueen) second year final project The Miser which made it into the Ottawa festival the year before. ( link off klassen’s website burstofbeaden)

    Great Stuff.

    Wow that is amazing and what a sweet/sad ending! It reminds me (and The Miser) of the kids TV we grew up with here in the UK in the 70s.

    That was rad. My kids loved it, and watched it over and over. Can’t wait for the sequel: A tooth for Atuth.

    As Jonathan Klassen’s pseudo uncle, I had opportunity to mess with his mind from time to time and so therefore would love to find a way to get credit for a small portion of his (now creative) deviance.

    I really enjoyed this animation. It was very inspiring. I would like to know more about how Jonathan developed his style.

    I love this piece I just wish they would fix the end. When the characters are walking off into the sunset they should be in reverse order.
