Address Is Approximate



Address Is Approximate from The Theory on Vimeo.

Google Street View stop motion animation short made as a personal project by director Tom Jenkins.

Story: A lonely desk toy longs for escape from the dark confines of the office, so he takes a cross country road trip to the Pacific Coast in the only way he can – using a toy car and Google Maps Street View.

All screen imagery was animated - there are no screen replacements.

Produced, animated, filmed, lit, edited & graded by Tom Jenkins (www.theoryfilms.co.uk / https://www.facebook.com/theoryfilms).

Unidirectional Bonding Strip

Wicked awesome animation. I never realized how much I love the sound of tape.

And the Internet Wins Again

If I had a mind left to be blown away, it would be splattered across the office wall right now. YouTube user kutiman has created another, maybe better, mashup of random, unrelated, YouTube music pieces. This is why the internet was invented.

Worth a Thousand

This seems like a pleasant way to start a Monday morning.  It's vaguely reminiscent of a Wes Andersen movie with all the dialogue parts removed.  You'll probably want to watch it a few times...

Flying Car

This is the video of not just the week, but the month.  Probably year, too.  It's not exactly brilliant, but it's certainly jaw dropping.  And it happened on a stretch of road that I drive down more than once a week.

This is police cruiser footage of a single car accident that took place this morning on a highway in my city.  It's the most amazing crash video I've ever seen.  Unbelievably, the latest reports say the driver is still alive.  I heard about the crash this morning on the radio, but I just saw the video when my cousin posted it to his Facebook page.

Nature's Missile Command

Lightning captured at 9,000 frames per second.  Freakishly awesome.  Pew pew.
