Very good project, just like Monday ...!! Awesomely well.

[matsuoka23]

[brucerivers]

Another brazilian talent!

[EchoL0C0]

This is definitely better then most animation on television these days!

[WolfLinkChick1991]

And that's how yellow paper is made :D much like zombies, it must spread by infecting ppl xD

[Uzianium]

I WANT TO GO TO THIS SCHOOL. but im too young... :P

[SayedYasin]

[StealthTroops]

Great job!

Some day i will make a horror film about someone who kills people with papercuts. It shall be called "The Papercut Killer"!

[Kitsunestar10]

I remember seeing this on TV a few years ago

[ChrisCompany1029]

Those people nat the office are rasist to paper people...

[foxyloxyBABE]

scary but nice. AWESOME but disturbing. WHAT on earth can be used to describe this??? XD its so awesome!!!

[BloodJunkieFireFly]

I lold at the denied stamp

[ZillieZephyr]

SOILENT YELLOW IS PEOPLE!

[DavieWithAnE]

Great Video

[MerchManDan]

I had to laugh at 1:53 :-D

Also: Soylent White is made out of PEOPLE!!! IT'S PEEEEEOPLLLLLLE!!!!

[rockpowerZX]

why are vfs' films always creepy?

[HiddenXperia]

well this is quite shit isnt it my nan could do better, sweaty americans.

[CiaranBray]

@HiddenXperia haha, it's in Canada! the film is fairly good but looks like a poor mans 'powerpuff girls' or 'my fairly odd parents.. still, good work!

[LongFingered]

@HiddenXperia ....how does "sweaty" have anything to do with animation talent? Even if they were sweaty, you realize Vancouver is Canadian, right?

[StuntPilotin]

Wow.

Honestly that was disturbing and awesome.

[deputy98]

the curse.

[maengster]

ahaha this reminds me of district 9.

[shootingstarblood101]

This one is the best video out of the rest!!!!! :D

[XxSupaxXD]

[TRIVIUMrocker123]

Thumbs up if the guy at :28 Made you yawn too

[MsAly333]

[middleC17]

I loved this!

[legomaster191]

People dont get easy papercuts you know.

[Chuckylover33]

I think hes been working for to log lol : P

[VancouverFilmSchool]

@TheGirlWithThePaints Students in our Classical Animation program use a variety of different programs including Toon Boom's Opus and Harmony. However, we believe that software, while important, is just the means to a larger ends. Our primary focus is not on the software itself but on teaching core skills and how to use software as a tool.

[YarunoDoragon]

It's vampire paper! Run for your lives!

[cursemarkfan]

@YarunoDoragon i think its ware paper cause it dont suck your blood... or turn into a bat...well unless you know oragami lol

[ObiWanGuacamoli]

This is brilliant. Very creative work!

[WOWJBEOWULF]

Papercut a good video. In industry we become the paper, a paper cut is deadly; as we see through the paper eyes we realize white-out blinds us; and every staple, tac, and scissors are deadly to our paper lives. To be banished to the waste bin, because it is us, is the end; our paper life has ended. Got to love society, most cave-dwellers can neither read allegory nor metaphor, but are sure they feel something: This is a serious film, and should be shown in every school.

[Nanchee76]

2:22 hahahhahah

[DJLAWX]

muito engracado

great :)

[vbalock]

I love this one.

[luistinator]

Johnny Bravo's mom!! :D

[4mahmood]

@luistinator hey so paper guy is carl hahahah

[bucinto]

A brasilian in VFS! Arrasou!

[drunkmunk10]

Very Dexter's Lab-esque animation.

Loved it.

[ShadowSoldior]

People must never know the true purpose of the company...Creating paper for the military to send to enemy countries and turn them all into paper!

[ekham1]

im not sure if this is funny or sad lol

[MajorHarvestMoonFan]

awww he commited suicide D:

[VitaNuovaRevolution]

ah, it was a little choppy. But the idea and animation was brilliant.

[yuyi20]

GENIAL!

[KMelter]

So good.

[guopeneferozz]

i love the dramatic music.

is like final fantasy battle. :)

10/10

[MusicWhore28]

Best one yet.

<3 it!!

[Elliandr]

So that's where all the office paper comes from... ;)

[IMBFire92]

poor guy!

[papercotton]

wow... does the moral have any reference to being a tree and then transformed into a piece of paper? like killing a life to make a thing?

[EmilyCat200]

why did they kill him!? It would be awesome to be paper :D

[blondrose84]

nice, but really creepy ;-;

[Jh5kRadio]

2:23

Oooh...that's gotta hurt...

[Hedhnter]

That was actually kinda scary

[ekf501]

that was such an ingenious idea, I love the concept and the animation was well done. but lol its a disease, stop cutting up those yellow paper people it will spread! lol

[MorroccoSurrogate]

For a film school short, this is pretty mainstream.

It's a nice change, actually.

[deiology]

Holy Moley this cartoon is hottttttttt!!!!! WHO DID THIS???? WHO CAME UP WITH IT??? SHOW YOURSELF!!!!! Ten stars!!! It's works!

[Spanky00Cheeks]

[fushiafleur]

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!­ good job.

[Matthudson2]

You had me at the bubble from EbOli to PedrO in the water cooler! Couldn't disagree more about the music. Love the constant ping-pong in the score between chase scene and the secretary's desk. My favorite out of the playlist. Loved the set and the very original story. I laughed at 1:99 when dude pops his shirt open for whatever reason. Fun!

[JayneMariefromDet]

wow good but gruesome

[chrisbrownandcharlei]

that was so funny

[spencss1]

is the Vancouver Film School a film collage or wat?

[VancouverFilmSchool]

Sort of! VFS is a post-secondary entertainment arts school - one-year programs, ranging from Animation & Visual Effects to Makeup Design to Sound Design and Writing. Look around our channel and you'll see examples of student work from many of the different programs here.

[spencss1]

cool but do you guys just do anamations?

[kynio112]

dont cut yourself with paper !! :D

[TheNeotgh]

Класс! Очень понравилось!!!

[Summfink]

I am really, REALLY scared of paper now.

[MichaelDamoulianos]

awesome

[michelewilla]

i hate paper cuts but I like Papercut the movie. Is this how companies are saving on paper now?

Beware. handle your paper with care

[sweetbanira]

This proves Papercuts are the ultimate evil.

[thetwentyfourth]

Very nice.

The weakest link was the music, I think, because it stayed in the same mood for far too long. Animation like this needs music that is just as animated, with abrupt and stark contrast mirroring every change that happens on-screen. I felt the consistency of the music undermined the effectiveness of scene changes. Especially major stylized ones like at 1:56.

[katie4movies]

Great job! I really enjoyed that. Even though the end was a little sad, it was part of a great story idea! Thank you for this!

[nbek]

just great.

[jytual]

Grrreat !! good idear and good job !

[BambooCVIL]

it would be fun to have a paper guy for a pet

[seimyboy]

the fad guy :DDDD he's the best^^

[Missinghalf]

omg this was terrifying.

[MosesHouse]

good deal!

[seimyboy]

love it!

[spencss1]

OMG!!!! thats great

[superninjaswordsmen]

Wow, I like it alot.

[supersmashbrother123]

well that was depressing...the paper dude was harmless and they shredded him O.O

[EZaccessBTV]

Wow, that is kind of depressing!

[8purplefreak8]

Super cool! Great idea.

[ch1l1ch33s3c4k3]

This is still one of my favourite VFS animations - great work!

[grraorwwl]

Haha I liked this Pedro! Very nice job!

[beckybee04]

i like dots bunos muns inuksuks and 50 cent

[BobTheHappyGoth]

Kudos Pedro, awesome i alway wonderd where paper came from i knew it wasn't trees

[JumperinNiJiKi]

[Dooldeen]

[khangkungkrntz]

[medaknight4]

Poor Mailguy XD

[ourabouras]

story, pacing, music everything was amazing! i seriously died that was so funny.

[Flegan777]

So that's how they get more paper XD

[JordansParka]

Excellent job.. very clever idea, extremely funny and well animated!

[serjmarion123]

what the heck with the paper

[BussiHussi]

and the morale: don't run around with sciccors in your hands

[moonside1988]

why r they doing that to a victim of paper virus...

[Paxmax]

Love it! that was awesome!!

Though, the receptionist looks a bit copied from Drew Cary show.. but really who am I to complain when it was an awesome vid!!!??

[xholydustx]

she actually looks nothing like the receptionist from Drew Carey but looks exactly like Krystal from Dead Like Me. :) Google it. I still think it's coincidence on both ends.

[Paxmax]

Jeebus cryst...al! I viewed her photo at madison talent management... scary stuff.

[xholydustx]

you totally see what i mean though, right? :D it's kind of amazing.

[Paxmax]

yup. the recentionist also resembles Johnny Bravo's mom! (gosh.. how many cn look like a 'toon?)

[UploadPancakesHere]

wow.. very cool.. flaming white out!!!

[having2muchfun]

Love the characters.

[paulofan2]

muito bom!!!!!

inglish:Great!!!!!!!!

[jessie2no1]

Wow! Really good! What an idea! Go work.

[Imagineworksstudios]

Hmm... The style of the characters remind me of Total Drama Island or 6teen for some reason.

[andrewpacific4]

LMAO.

[zizon7]

really different

[rogervduarte]

woww, really well designed and original.

[sweetygirl]

that was funny xD haha

[xSoilderx]

...Intresting :)

[worryrokspaz325]

Loved that. Very creative! :D

[DamienZshadow]

haha reminded of a zombie survival skit

[klifragilistico]

aaaa es una maldicion!!! jajaja

q sadico, esta muy bueno

[Zwickel]

I think this is the best VFS animation short so fat, love it!

So professional :D Good job!

[normalman37]

wow very unique story line.

[Mangotropolis]

I'll be traumatized for the rest of my life about getting a paper cut.

This was an amazing funny short film. xD Had me laughing a few times. Poor guy though D':

[stefsien]

Great! Awesome :D

[littlenikki]

This was extremely impressive!!! i was blown away with it and it was etremely creative.

[kaft132]

ohh shit.. xD

[KnightsLantern]

Awesome, love the idea =p

[mangaatbagoong]

that's crazy..nicely done

[vandersnatch]

Liquid paper molotov cockatails? Denied stamp?  Excellent delivery and expression? This was the video to lead my wayward day to the path of awesomeness. Thank you sir!

[IzeTheJukebox]

This is a GREAT animation. very nicely drawn emotions on the faces. I really liked the part 1:33 -> 1:36. Gave the feeling of that they were going after him, they looked so evil. The think i think you could've done better is the paper guy's reaction when he sees the 3 "hunters" at the exit, he should be more paniced.

Anyhow, once again, extremely well made short cartoon, i'd love to see more of this.

5/5 stars possible, no doubt.

[KakashiFangirl3753]

I love it so creative.feel sorry for the guy with the paper cut though :/

[Magestrix]

Remind me to wear gloves when working in that office.

At least they'll never run out of memo paper.

[Aziq3D]

Lol... this is a good one (:

[queenoftatters]

Beware...the WERE-PAPER'S CURSE!

[bgirlraiderette20]

wren and stempy meets pablo picasso HAHAHA

that was very cute :D

♥BW♥

[JesusLiebtHitler]

Nice job, but the plot doesn't make ANY sense. Therefore 1 star only.

[Mahooak]

of all the vfs shorts ive watched this one is prolly my favorite. great job!

[DrDell]

lmfao great job mate lol loved it lol

[deathnoterawks]

So he got cut by a paper employee then cut another employee when he was paper?

What a vicious cycle. O.o

[nannavampire]

*o*!!!!!

[OhAdunDunDun]

xD

Awesome!

I was so sad for him at the end...

xD

[alohaEmma]

Very smart!

[mecp13]

i dont get. why did that man turn into paper?! Just bcuz he got a papercut?i dont get it. and why were those people running after him?Just to cut him up and use him as paper supply. still dont get it but anyways the animation style is really good.

[VlAaAaDiMiR]

OMG!! its called creativity! so just keep those kinds of comments to your self you stup nazz

[Naochan87]

exactly!!!! there´s ppl who can´t understand anything that goes beyond reality...pfff

[musicforever1987]

Very funny, good job!

[MouthofSaurons]

Wow so great! Just sad there are so many idiot users on youtube whose drunk commentaries destroys the fun of other people.

I also like that this is a good example, that an animation does not have to be 3d like the other cool shorts, but a good ol' disney cartoon style can match out the explosive and fast paced action 3d animations.

It contains a good classic humor and a tear-dropping ending.

5 Stars!

[Anzer666]

ROFL at 2:00. the fat guy lol

[SkittleGurl03]

oh my gosh that is so evil! lol it makes me not want to get a paper cut! great animation and I love how you encorperated the beginning credits with the room. Good Job, and keep up the good work :)

[spider853]

Dexter Style :) Cool

[curtisladri]

awesome... great work

te felicito man. seguí así.

[Fergyvivapinata]

lol the end

"ow..." here we go again lol

[aven8205]

nice :)

[glowworm2]

That was frightening! So employees get turned into paper and are then turned into office supplies?I don't want to work there!*shudders* Poor paper guy-but awesome!

[Greenjah81]

Awesomely sick!!! Love the supply room!!! You guys rocked it!

[albertbeccu]

i will never look at the order forms the same way again. :O :)

[SadLittleHTFan]

The timing was waaaay slow. This would've seemed WAAAY more EPIC if this was done super fast in like a minute. And this whole thing could've been reduced to a minute, and I personally think it would've been more EPIC. The sound effects could've been done more intensely and with more umph. Other than that I like this video, even though it was just too slow paced for my taste...
