Amazing Short Animation of Stanely Kubrick Films

I found this amaz­ing ani­ma­tion short of Stan­ley Kubrick by Mar­tin Woutis­seth. I am a huge Stan­ley Kubrick fan and ani­ma­tion fan so nat­u­rally I com­pletely loved this and hope you will too.

By the way here is my favorite quote (again) from the late, great Mr. Kubrick:

The most ter­ri­fy­ing fact about the uni­verse is not that it is hos­tile but that it is indif­fer­ent; but if we can come to terms with this indif­fer­ence and accept the chal­lenges of life within the bound­aries of death—how­ever muta­ble man may be able to make them—our exis­tence as a species can have gen­uine mean­ing and ful­fill­ment. How­ever vast the dark­ness, we mus sup­ply our own light.”
– Stan­ley Kubrick, in an inter­view with Eric Nordern, Play­boy (Sep­tem­ber 1968)

Ani­ma­tion made with mix­ing each Kubrick’s movies. Typog­ra­phy, col­ors, pat­terns and sym­bols are re inter­prat­ing. The old man is watch­ing behind his life, nos­tal­gic and the young one is think­ing about his future to write.

Some good Kubrick resources:

• The Kubrick Site — an Amaz­ing col­lec­tion for all things Kubrick
• The Offi­cial Warner Broth­ers Site for his films.
• Kubricks IMDB Site
