PocketMovies is back — and it's been a long time coming.

In 2000, before YouTube existed, this site was already here — celebrating animation, short films, and the creators behind them. Not about quantity. Never about algorithms. Always about quality. PocketMovies is rising from the ashes, and it's once again possible to share your films with the world. ❤️ Jérôme

The Artist Sébastien Guenot has conjointly with his friend Jerry started ORCAVISIONS Digital Art Studio AB after there graduation in Vancouver Film School in 2000. Orcavisions is focued on 3D animation and Fx and has also won an award for a realistic digital monkey at the 3D festival 2000.

Dear Sebastien, A truly great animation short. Particularly given that you made it in 1999. The version on this site is let down a little by the relatively poor resolution and the abrupt end to the sound track. Any chance of re-rendering the short, re-mixing the sound track at a higher resolution and including a nice fade-out and ressurecting your web site to carry it, in the way many other animators have done? It would make a great showcase for your work. John Awb, UK
