Tyger

|

When I saw Tyger a few years ago, I really started thinking seriously about setting up an LTV tribute site.  It combines everything that was brilliant about the best of the old Liquid TV animations.  There’s beauty, amazing music, creativity, immense quantities of pure “style” and it’s story could be appreciated by anyone due to the lack of dialog.  Simply hypnotic.

From the YouTube description:

An absolutely magical short by Guilherme Marcondes of Brazil, based on a William Blake poem.
Tyger blends puppetry, illustration, photography and CGI. Dreamy, mesmerizing, brilliant. Wow.
