The Last Two Martians on Mars
- by Ragnar Brynjúlfsson © 1997 - 1 minA short fast paced cut-out animation. It tells the story of Diane and Bob, the last two surviving Martians on Mars. The film won the first prize at the Reykjavik Short Film Festival in 1997 and a couple of honorable mentions at other festivals. All the backgrounds and characters were painted with an airbrush, cut-out and animated under the camera in the wee hours of the night. The film is in English and Martian, but the lingusit out there may notice that Martian bears very close resemblance to Icelandic.
Free Jimmy
- feature film currently in production
Free Jimmy is a feature film about an escaped drug addicted elephant, militant straight edge animal rights activists, the Sami Mafia, a Russian circus and the bums from the Two Wasted Wankers TV-series. Starring the voices of some great talent like Woody Harrelson and Simon Pegg. It is also what I've been working on as an animator, character rigger and lead character TD for the past 4-5 years.
Free Jimmy has an attitude and style never before seen on the big screen in a CG film, where happy family friendly films tend to be the main fare. Even though the production has been hard work, and had it's ups and downs, I'm very happy to have been part of creating an animated feature that goes where others don't dare. Animation is not just for the kids anymore.
Flower Power
- by Ragnar Brynjúlfsson © 2000 - 1 min
A short computer animated, action packed valiant adventure film from the middle ages about a princess picking flowers. It started it's life with knights in armor, swords and shields, horses and wild heartbreaking romances, but turned out as something completely different. Even though the film has a hand drawn look, it was entirely made in 3D.
Men with Chocolate
- by Ragnar Brynjúlfsson © 2000 - 1 min24 continuos hours, 24 seconds of animation or more, 24 pencils, a big pile of animation paper and no pre-planing, that was the plan! Inspired to attempt in animation what Scott McCloud had started with his 24-hour comics challenge. 550 drawings, a stiff wrist and a tiered back later, I had the 1 min long short film Men with Chocolate finished.
