And the oscar goes to....

Here are the nominations for the Best Animated Short.

Presto - Pixar

Presto! - Awesome video clips here


Lavatory Lovestory - Konstantin Bronzit


Oktapodi - Talantis Films


This Way Up - Alan Smith and Adam Foulkes (Trailor Only)


and La Maison en Petits Cubes - Kunio Kato
(I couldn't find any videos of it - sorry!)


My personal favorite is "Lavatory - Lovestory". Very heart warming and funny. I was able to really get attached to her character and feel for her. It was brilliant and so simply animated. I did really like the animation for Oktapodi though too.

Power.

Psalm 46
"God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.

Therefore we will not fear though
the earth gives away,
though the mountains be moved into
the heart of the sea,
though its waters roar and foam,
though the mountains tremble at its swelling.

There is a river whose streams make glad
the city of God,
the holy habitation of the Most High.
God is in the midst of her;
she shall not be moved;
God will help her when morning dawns.

The nations rage, the kingdoms totter;
he utters his voice, the earth melts.
The Lord of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.

Come, behold the works of the Lord,
how he has brought desolations on the earth.
He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;
he breaks the bow and shatters the spear;
he burns the chariots with fire.

'Be still and know that I am God.
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth!'

The Lord of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress."

Our God is so incredible.
