KaboingTV Indie Showase: The Thing in the Distance by Elliot Cowan

"After 10 years of writing and directing television commercials in
Tasmania, Elliot sold his house, gave his dog to his parents and moved to
London. Now he works on animated movies, illustrations for other people
and art pieces for himself. The short films based on his characters,
Boxhead and Roundhead, have played to great acclaim at festivals all over
the world. He has abandoned London for the Big Apple, which he loves. He's
currently slogging through the mire required to bring Boxhead and
Roundhead to the big screen."

So simple, yet so effective! I enjoyed this. Fantastic ending.

It's depressing, I've seen fetish animations for game characters done in MSPaint get about 33 times as many views as the stuff on this channel. I hope this doesn't die so soon.

This is decently psychological.

I absolutely love this! It's the perfect blend of Piotr Kamler darkness and 90's american animation.
