Khoda
What if you watch a film and whenever you pause it, you face a painting? This idea inspired Reza Dolatabadi to make Khoda. Over 6000 paintings were painstakingly produced during two years to create a five minutes film that would meet high personal standards. Khoda is a psychological thriller; a student project which was seen as a ‘mission impossible’ by many people but eventually proved possible!
Director and art director: Reza Dolatabadi
Written by Reza Dolatabadi & Mark Szalos Farkas
Animation by Adam Thomson
Music by Hamed Mafakheri

Totalitarian Architecture of the Third Reich
In a totalitarian system such as existed in Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945, the government attempted to control every aspect of daily life. It used architecture to some degree to achieve this, to firmly establish its authority leaving no doubt as to who was in charge. One of the chief aims of Nazi architecture was also to reflect the beliefs of National Socialism, celebrate the German national identity and glorify the idea of the master Aryan race, as perceived by Hitler and his associates.
Hemlock
Here's a film I made for the latest CGSociety challenge...the theme was to adapt an ancient myth to steampunk stylings. I chose the myth about the fountain of youth for my topic.

Abandoned Lighthouses
Lighthouse architecture is captivating. Aside from their practical purpose of guiding sailors away from shore lines at night, lighthouses have always occupied a special place in storytelling lore. They may not be lighting the way for sailors and captains anymore, but they still serve as beautiful and captivating landmarks.

The Napalm Caverns of Russia
This abandoned Russian fortress is probably one of the creepiest places I have seen.
The reason for it to have such a strange look is because it was used later by Russian army to test the influence of Russian alternative to napalm inside of the brick houses.
Due to very high temperature of napalm the bricks started melting just like ice melts in the spring forming the icicles, but those icicles are of red brick.

Weapons Of Mass Destruction
Although the term, WMD, has become a part of our daily lexicon, it remains very much an abstraction for most of us. This series of images offers a retrospective look at some of these weapons.

Giant Snowball on Hampstead Heath
You'd think we had never seen snow before in this country. This is pretty funny though.
