The Wand is a very neat animated movie short (4.04 min) about "the universal nature of power and greed". It was made by Nick Worthey and won a grand prize in a contest at Atom Films.
The video is from Atom Films which has lots of free videos, including my random giggle-producing choice Otto in 17, created by Bruno Bozzetto. Each video is preceded by an ad but the ones I saw were amusing rather than annoying.
I first found The Wand through a link on the Computer Arts blog. The site for the magazine has tutorials, news, etc. available without a subscription. You can sign up for a free account so you can subscribe to the free newsletter.
The RRS feed for the Computer Arts Daily blog is http://www.computerarts.co.uk/blog.rss If you're not familiar with RSS or you want more info on how to set it up for your newsreader, instructions for the RSS feed are at the bottom of the 'Computer Arts Daily' section.
Note: I decided to do all my blogging from this site, both the short bits and longer pieces. I'm still using Bloglines to keep track of other blogs, so please visit the Digital Stage link to the left if you want to see my blogroll. [Blog entry edited heavily January 14, 2007]
