Blik

I found this video on vimeo. It's about a young boy who falls in love with a much older neighbour.
I think its amazing that even with no dialogue and no faces you get the story and even the emotion. I would like to learn the skill of using body language to portray emotion. I think in animation it needs to be slightly exaggerated so you notice it.
I am also intrigued by the style. It looks hand drawn with brilliant colours and textures and has little pencil lines on but somehow the characters look like they're made from wood and quite 3D. I can't find anywhere that says how they did this but I really do like it! I also like the realistic movement they captured, I think they may have filmed this before animating it.
