We don’t often post this type of thing here, but you could help a young filmmaker win the contest of a lifetime… and he’s EXTREMELY talented. Evan Sussman’s film short, Escape, is a fantastic voyage into a freedom from the stresses of modern life. It is a contender for a $30,000 prize from The Doorpost Film Project. If you like the film, please vote for it!

Evan talks about how he created the film, including the special effects, working with expressions in After Effects and using Trapcode plugins. Read the full interview here

Inspirational piece

If you are a youngster born in the age of The Matrix, than you probably never heard of a great movie Tron. My guess is that actually you might have but you didn’t realize it. This movie is 26 years old and has amazing special effects, but the best thing is the story itself. The movie however was a disaster. In my option it was going far in the future and most people just didn’t understand it, however on an abstract level it makes perfect sense.

If you want to learn more about the movie check all the info on Wikipedia.

Anyway… My point is: if you haven’t seen it yet, than you should. If you did, maybe it’s time to watch it again? Here’s a great fan-film that inspired me to write this post. Hope you’ll enjoy it.

Heres the original movie scene.
