Hey guys,

So I've finished my short film "Cubicle Karl". This short started out as an after work project and it kind of took on a life of it's own. It's been a couple years and a lot of late nights but I finally managed to get it done. I hope you like it. Enjoy!

Hahaaa that was a nice little animation you got there. I actually feel sad for Karl. Nicely done.

I like the character. You should make "Cubicle Karl" miniseries :D

What a great short! 5 stars, couldn't help it! So many nice moments, and the animation was very expressive!

Hahah, very relatable subject matter for most of us stuck behind a computer for most of the day! And pulled off with hilarity I must say. I love when he spring boards off the cubicle to take out the computer wrestling style! Kudos to you and all your effort it can't be easy to pull a short like this solo!

Most importantly it teaches a valuable lesson: don't trust anyone who's name ends in '69' :P!

Great job!

That's pretty funny man! I laughed out loud and it has some memorable moments. Like when throws the chair or when he's on 1/2 second. Congrats on finishing!

Jesus.

Awesome Nick! Its good to see your short all rendered up and kickin it with sound! Really like it when he throws the papers all up in the air, and the 1/2 seconds is ROFLMAO too!!

I remember back when Carl was still just a twinkle in your eye. Can't wait to see your next project.

Nick,

great to see the piece finished. I love the shot of Karl running around in his cubicle at the end.

Are you working on another one?

Cheers

Hey Nick,

Great film , really held my interest all the way through and there were some really cool moments. The only critiques I have are that the camera moves felt a bit much at times and that a little more time could have been spent on posing. Checkout the hand pose at frame 1804 for example, it is very default. But overall it's awesome!


Cheers

Very funny stuff he should have known better. Loved the flying macho man like elbow.

Definitely got a laugh out of it, I thought it was a little slow at first, but once he the transfer starts "h3rp3s" I believe you named it, it was pretty funny, nice job.
