Hayao Miyazaki Inspired Animated Short - THESE AND THOSE TREETOP AND HEAVEN

View fullsize

I have a beautifully animated short film for you to watch today called "Celles et Ceux des Cimes et Cieux (These and Those Treetop and Heaven)." It was created by Gwenn Germain, who says it was inspired by the work of Hayao Miyazaki, Jean Girault, and Syd Mead. You can definitely see the influence of those artists in this short. Here's a brief story summary:

A young boy who lives in a village on a giant tree, fall in the depth of the forest where he meets two strange natives who will help him to go back home.
