The Mind's Eye - 07 Love Found (Short Circutz)

This is the animation "Love Found" from the early computer animation compilation "The Mind's Eye."

In 1990 Odyssey Productions gathered together shorts and demo reels from hundreds of artists working in the fledgling field of computer animation. These captivating computer generated videos were combined with an original score to give the world a look at the future of animation. Eventually these shorts would be licensed by YTV in Canada to be aired as "Short Circutz" in place of commercials.

Unlike later productions, The Mind's Eye was only released on VHS tape and Laserdisc. This is the higher quality Laserdisc release, carefully digitized.

Can somone tell the title of this music? I love it so much!

[Jax184]

@ArchangelGMichel It's by James Reynolds and it's called Love Found. If you look around you might be able to find the soundtrack to The Mind's Eye for sale on CD. I bought a copy on ebay awhile back.

Remember when Canadian content was good?

I do when watching this.

[Jax184]

@Grahamx227 These were made in the US.

@Jax184

these were aired very often on Canadian  channel YTV many years ago

[Jax184]

@Leviathan024 I kinda noted that in the description. That's the whole reason I went to the effort of tracking down these laserdiscs and digitizing them.

This one was probably the one that got the most airtime in the mid 90's. It's probably the least abstract and the most plot-driven one of all the shorts.

Those faces and eyes are pretty good at conveying emotion.

What Stephenie Meyer attempted to do with four books, this vid aced it in 2 minutes and 24 seconds.

[SanDhampir]

this is so beautiful. it's like something you would find in a dream

[blomez]

This video makes me think of a time when I thought everything would be okay~

[TonyAKA30]

I guess that everyone here saw this video in their childhood (most on YTV like myself) and for some reson we get very emotional when viewing it...I avoid watching this video because I start crying every time. I guess that because, one, this video is so beautiful and I did not understand it as a child and second, it's one of the most predominant audio/visual memories that I have of my childhood :')

[claritysabbath]

This one was always my favourite. :)

@stfuBUDDY

Because this has amazing symbolism. Not only can love break down barriers.. it can create a new world. I love it. Makes me all teary eyed too.. The first time I saw this I was about 7 I remembered the visuals totally different than I experience them now, but the feeling is the same.

I watched this when I was so small. It was a trip then, and still is now.
