Michel Hébert

Computer animated short film created to commemorate the National Film Board of Canada's 50th anniversary.

In this animated short, friendly characters are busy preparing for a party. While a cook takes care of the final preparations, they see themselves parachuted into an unusual setting. At first disoriented by the strangeness of the place, the characters quickly overcome their apprehension to set off to discover the various objects that inhabit them. This wordless film was produced on the occasion of the NFB's 50th anniversary and was created using 3D animation software.

Charcoal drawings depict the bleak world of the worker. Pastel drawings illustrate his dreams. Oftentimes, they are dreams created by the media. Are they tailored to his real needs? Or his pocketbook? This film comments indirectly on the impact of publicity and its power to develop appetites that cannot be satisfied.
