Sweet Short: “Gulp”

A fisherman catching a fish from the stop motion animated film GulpGulp is an stop motion animated short film that follows a fisherman on a day out fishing.  But this fisherman is in for a few surprises as he goes about his usual routine.

The animation is pretty cool because a lot of it is done by drawing in sand on a beach.  I really think that is what makes it for me in this short.  Using the sand creates a level of whimsy that I really enjoy.

Check it out.


Okay, as you may have noticed at the end of the video, this short was shot entirely on a phone.  What?  It looks incredible.  Want to know what else is incredible?  This short film holds the record for the largest stop motion animation set.  The largest scene, which I imagine is the part when the boat is swallowed, was a set that was over 11,000 square feet.  Amazing!
