Battle For Carentan

BATTLE FOR CARENTAN shows the gritty realism of war and the epic battlefield moments: To show that war is not needed. To show the violence in war. To show the war that changed the world.

Inspired by the Band of Brothers Series, this 3-mins, hand-drawn, classical animation (made in year 2004) revolves around the battle in Carentan, France, during WWII.

The animation is created by 3 AEP (Art Elective Programme) students from Hwa Chong Institution (Singapore). More than a thousand frames of drawings are done. The sound effects and the music are all from royalty-free sources.

[kriegsammler]

Only crit I have is.. All the guns depicted.. would not sound the same.. for example the German MG42 has a very distinct sound when it fires so.. maybe find some sound clips and edit those in..? (Minor nitpick I know.. but I'm a stickler for details.. ;) Very nice work overall..)
