This short stop-motion film is adorable and well executed.
The film's main characters are two blobs - one white, one black. They appear to be competing in the beginning, transforming themselves into various critters - one more interesting than the last. In the end, they conform in a way that indicates their cooperation.
The animation is very well made, giving the blogs distinctive characteristics. The background music helps push the story along - it is simple but poignant with the bass driving the pulse of the film. This was submitted in the middle school category, yet the filmmakers age is give as age 44 - so that is confusing. I'm unsure if actual students were involved in creating this or the filmmaker just selected the wrong category. This will be important as far as categorizing it for KIDS FIRST! Film Festival.
The film's message seems to indicate that even opposites can find a way to collaborate.
I give this film 3.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 12, plus adults. By Julie S., KIDS FIRST!
