Never did i imagine, a random film choice turned out to be a helluva good one

Caught Usavich (season 1 – 3) earlier, one of the films shown for Animation Nation 2009.
It’s a series of animated short films, done by Kanaban Graphics, for MTV Japan.
And the creator (without his team) was at the showcase, sharing with us how it was being planned / draft and the final result.
Season 1, mainly about the absurd daily happenings the main characters (Kirenenko & Putin) goes thru.
And Season 2 was about their jail-breaking and on the run adventures, mainly due to Kirenenko’s need to get his shoes.
Lastly, Season 3 was on the things they went thru to get Kirenenko’s shoes.
It’s insanely impossible to survive a bullet from a sniper rifle or a direct hit from a rocket launcher. Much less possible to change car tires and do immediate car modification, while in a high speed chase or being chased by police. Oh and okama chickens are not welcome or entertained
Simply adorable, with a hint of random violence.
But without it, it wouldn’t be animation or suited for the branding.
Right?
It’s currently showing on MTV or you can catch it on their official site (HERE).

Btw, if anyone know where i can get okama chick plushie (see pic below), do drop me a message.
Thanks

Spotted this event while flipping through TimeOut magazine…
Didn’t know that DD was talking about this event when we were planning when to head down to Ikea.
Anyway, this year’s theme (as quoted from site):
The theme for ArchiFest ’09, “Architecture for Humanity”, expresses our ambition to reconsider one of the fundamental purposes of creating architecture – to celebrate and embrace the concept of humanity. In the midst of frantic urbanisation, a proliferation of globalised one-size-fits-all solutions, and the ubiquitous production of icons, have architects, intentionally or not, forsaken their duty to create architecture for people?

There will be tours, exhibitions, fringe events and competitions…
So many things to do, so little time… >.<
