Film

Today at work I got to see part of the SIGGRAPH 2010 Electronic Theater. It's a collection of the best CG short films of the year.

This one by Daihei Shibata was my favorite. Watch it full screen if you can.

I might see if I'm allowed to sign out the whole video, because I only got to see about half of it. I looked up the titles of all the shorts online when I was trying to find this one, and there were a lot of others that looked good too.

I can't remember if I learned this exact piano piece but I did take piano. How far did you get with it?

I took piano lessons from when I was about 4 or 5 to the end of 10th grade. I was never all that into it, unfortunately. Mostly went because my mom really wanted me to (her whole family is massively into classical music, she plays some piano and was a dj at a classical music radio station for a while). I could technically play pretty well, but I was a bit annoyed because my teachers wouldn't teach me any music theory, classical music was never really my thing, and I couldn't get emotionally into much of what I was playing. This piece was one of the ones I liked, though. Debussy is neat. I think it was one of the last ones I learned.

How long did you take piano?

From kindergarten to grade 10 as well. But I think you should totally be playing guitar instead of piano. I liked it but shashigai had to take it too and he didn't, he really wanted to learn violin instead but he wasn't allowed.

I wish you could have learned my music theory instead of me! I hated it, I thought it was really boring and I just wanted to play.

I agree! XD

That really sucks. :( Did he ever get to learn it?

Aww man, if only there was some way to go back in time and trade this stuff!

Yeah! 47, let him play some, ok?

A little bit. But bad things happened. I don't know if I'm supposed to be talking about that, it's his story.

Yeah! I would have some music-stuff to trade too.
