The Elephant's Garden

Want the EXTENDED SOUNDTRACK by RedM on VINYL??? Crowdfunding/preorder here!!! redm.bandcamp.com/campaign/th...
A film I made with elephants in it, and a bunch of other things too.
This was my third year film at RMIT University, Bachelor of Animation and Interactive Media, and the winner of Best Australian Film at MIAF 2014.

This is exactly why I love animation! :) We are so used to everyday streams of fakeness that everyone has been tuned to it and became immune. But animations are still uncensored for the better part, and totally good for opening peoples eyes, which are starving for the weirdness of such... as our minds mirror what's mosly seen, pictures in animations exaggerate aspects of reality making it shockingly strange, yet still true. One cannot express emotionality any better.

I think Felix is one of those artists who really understands the power of cycles on a spiritual level - all these rhythmic, cyclical movements in his animation (complementing they cycles of the music), paired with these cycles of day and night, birth, life, death, and consumption. A beautiful portrait of life as a whole, a wheel, in apparent perpetual motion. Horrifying, ugly, beautiful, funny. Still resonates with me all these years later. Been loving your recent work too

I love the style! It reminds me of being a kid and not understanding everything fully. Edit: Holy shit this comment got a lot of attention. To clarify, I was referring the level of complexity of the world Felix Colgrave created in this animation and comparing it to how, as a child, it takes time to understand how the different aspects of our world are connected. For example, how the smallest insect or blade of grass impacts the world around it, and how many other organisms depend on that one insect or blade of grass. Also, I did have a kinda messed up childhood for those wondering lol. While I wasn't high as a kid like some of you were suggesting, my biological father was often high or drunk off his ass. That and I watched the shit out of Adult Swim from age 3 and up, so watching trippy animations was a norm for me growing up.

@Bryce Ko I don't t freaking get it though! Can you please explain?

[@andrewarnold2450]

@@pifflesomepuffnadder855 The reason it says "Yes" is because "Me", the person writing the meme, simply chooses to not answer directly and just say "Yes", which means several things related to the question or just none of them at all.

I love his animations, very creative with originality.

[@spacekidyt1198]

i have to say i really respect felix colgrave and his form of avant garde art. he creates worlds so amazingly and well that in 5 to 10 minutes it feels like you just got as much information on his world as you could get from this one in a lifetime of study

[@aeyenthelobster4858]

i feel like something is wrong because i kinda find this makes sense ,and its just really gorgeous animation

[@IyusYusufIskandar]

Please tell me what is the essential of this video? I don't get the point :(

[@candyman8924]

+Iyus Yusuf its just a story about a world ,all of the different things somehow interacting ,like our ecological system on earth do you want me to elaborate about something specific ,because everyone sees things in a different way

[@MusikSkull]

+Tamar Avrahami some say that every scene is the effect of some of drugs

[@BenjaminGessel]

Candy Man The concept that most people seem to lose sight of, with these sorts of animations, etc., is that there is still, in the universe, space, etc., different "degrees of glory" for different worlds, etc. In other words, hell is still hell, and heaven is still heaven. A world where the strong prey upon the weak is still a world which is not like heaven, and, of course, hell is far worse still...

[@Pivitrix]

People keep bringing up drugs.. but yeah, almost everything in this animation is still things that make sense, concepts we are familiar with and can relate to. It's really cool, but it isn't as far out there as people make it out to be. Try to see the world and life from the reduced perspective of a fish or a mosquito, can you even begin to comprehend it?
