    by Marie Urbánková

    The Concrete Jungle is a short animated film inspired by the limitless imagination of children. When a neighbour drills into a wall, who knows what a child thinks of a sound he doesn’t know and can’t identify. Maybe a herd of bisons is trampling through the neighbour‘s flat, or a savage cannibalistic tribe lives there. Thrilling tales of a small boy in a housing estate where even the most exciting adventures in the world can take place.

    This short but impressive experimental animation was made by students of the Studio of Animation at the Ladislav Sutnar Faculty of Design and Art of the University of West Bohemia during a traditional school plein-air. It was inspired by the endlessly elaborate structures of the bark on trees near the Wallenstein Loggia. The students fittingly used the technique of non-phased animation – animation of real photographs.
