The Lantern - An Enamored Aniboom Animation by Jason Dettmer

[SirKnightSilvayne]

He picked a star from the nights sky for his angel.

That is true, young love :)

[alfredadriano89]

When I saw the star, I was just WOW! This animation is really good. And it was creative.

Fishing for stars. What a great idea =D!

[Jesvel18]

heehee. he sort of looks like Frodo

[MegaMacDuckFaceLips]

this really reminds me of animal crossing :/

[yougetagoldstar]

anyone know the name of the song that starts at 1:52?

[dettma]

@yougetagoldstar "Thistles and Felt" by Caribou

[meis]

@dettmait

it reminds me of Passion Pit's music

[MidwesternWhisper]

Very cute.

[Lilliana1981]

Ich wünschte ich hätte auch jemanden, der mir die Sterne vom Himmel holt :)

[dettma]

@1987Airgunner 3D work was done in Maya, compositing was done in After Effects

[badsadhu]

[uniqumbrella]

Sweetly-fantastic-romance(love­) animation

[geek2thextreme]

i wanna know the music used in it

[Ducanization]

aww.. sweet ^_^ ..i'll catch a star for u...mye nt real one, but a star-fish..XDD

[Sirustalcelion]

I suppose stars are all catch and release. Does he have a star fishing license?

[w1nos]

Very good...

[johnthai5306]

Nice story telling. make me miss my childhood and kid's imagination

[artemisfowl93]

Damn these kids are fucking hideous.

[silverblue73]

so tired of seeing stars represented as pentagrams instead of enormous fiery balls of gas light-years away from our planet :(

[arbmc]

such a cute animation ^^

[DarkNoFun]

Great and Amazing !!! nice Story cute Animation

[Redsama226]

Beautiful!! The story is very cute too!

[ClassicsRockHard]

Veru cute and sweet.

I liked the whole thing.

[MINIDAPPY]

AWESOME I LOVE IT

[krypt0ne1]

Loved it! Thanks for sharing

[ThePink0Bunny]

This was amazing

[Dymamyd]

Wow, I loved this, it was so original. This is why I love animating, because it makes the impossible things possible, although I'm far from this skill.

[nocturne163]

Thanks for all these funny, cute, or even thrilling clips,

omg, i really love animation!^^

[nakmk]

Very cute

[alfredadriano89]

Nice.

[tgi007]

Heartwarming. Thanks for an adorable and touching tale.

[lynette05]

friggin adorable

[angelminni33]

awwwwwwww thats sooo cute ♥

[ReikoNemo]

cute :)

[ScottybugU2B]

I would have used the lantern to collect the fireflies and used that as a lamp.

[true2me713]

SO CUTE!!! <3

[Morewyn]

That was so cute!

[psychodelicdragon]

it all boils down to who has an imagination or not!

[wortumherwerfer]

the only thing I didn't like was the characters. anything else was great. beautiful landscape, good plot, nice music.

[69TmTulio]

haha soooo cuteeee

[SittingMooseShaman]

...heh, I thought he would fill the lantern w/fire-flies and shoot it up on a stringer tied to the fishing line... Nailin' a star is much better... After all... She is an angle!

Heart warming.

@gr8hokage... ease-up a little ...'Trolling' is becoming very boorish and quite passe.'

...try using some satirical rim-shots in the future- You'll be surprised @ how much it improves ones' written prosaic dialogue. 'Reality' in cartoons are anything the artists may imagine... Anything.

[x3Laii]

wooow, cuute ♥

[zaixywraith]

oh my gosh! this is one of the best and heart-felt animations that i has seen! well done jason dettmer!

[litoboy5]

[The696baby]

[GDPBilal]

Good job Aniboom

[Zappyguy111]

@GDPBilal

Good find you mean?

They don't make these animations, they promote them.

[GDPBilal]

@Zappyguy111 Ohh i suppeosed them the creator of this fantastic short film...Well thanks Austrailia!!!lol

[Zappyguy111]

@GDPBilal

Wait he was Australian? *blink*

I am... surprised at how many Australians are promoting they're animations though aniboom.

Only if I had the patience to do animating, I'd do the same, but, I prefer designing things I can hold.

[GDPBilal]

@Zappyguy111 Ok designing isn't bad.Infact sister of animation.I do motion graphics,desgning,d archetectural modeling etc...Lov animation...keep designing uP uo Fella!!!

[Zappyguy111]

@GDPBilal

Will do, and best of luck with your line of work.

[dettma]

@Zappyguy111 I'm American, not sure where that came from. Thanks for your comments.

[GDPBilal]

Good jon Aniboom



[punishshot]

Wowowowowowow such a sick story I <3 aniboom!!!

[ashishsawawnt26]

video is good but at 3:52 light is much bright.

[FragileBitch]

@ashishsawawnt26 C'mon nothing is totally perfect!! Beside the overall was still great!

[rafael44p]

they sult make bigger stories we all like them.

[lolzen2323]

Nice video - Thumbs Up for good animation - ;D

[gr8hokage]

fucking stupid stars are far away the most near sun is the sun andd it will kill us all if that retard did that

[karambiatos]

@gr8hokage

hi, you may have not noticed that it was a cartoon, and cartoons arent known for FOLLOWING FACTS

-_-

[gr8hokage]

@karambiatos HI, YOU MAY KNOW LIFE IS LIFE AND THIS IS STUPID

[bobandnorman]

@gr8hokage Why you acting like a dick. Every one knows that stars are really far away and that the closest "star" is the sun we all learnt this in like year/grade 4 so stop thinking your so smart and just enjoy it. It's an animation it doesn't need to be realistic because it's not real.

[ThePurpleGrenades]

@gr8hokage Its called a CARTOON

[chickenruler]

@gr8hokage

Then King Kong sucks because a gorilla that big couldn't climb the Empire State Building.

Then Up! is awful because you couldn't fly a house with balloons.

Then Pirates of the Caribbean is terrible since you can't get zombies in real life!

You are so stupid...

[1955thekeeper]

@gr8hokage duh, wat u meen? i no can take toy roket an fishin poll an katch pointy star like boy did? me tinks me can if'n me sets me mine to it. goofie pirsen, me do it an shoo u reel good! Well, do you feel really superior now for clearing up this little problem concerning astral physics? Do you take Fantasy Novels and a pencil and mark all the portions which can't possibly happen because it flies in the face of physical law? Come on pardner, it a blasted cartoon for Christ's Sake.

[TheCreativeJournal]

very cute!

[krisszboss1]
