Quiz #2: Rockfish

Throughout our series on animation, the film I enjoyed the most was Rockfish. The film had great CGI animation done by Blur Animation Studios, and I thought it had a very well thought out and creative story. I liked the relationship between the fisherman, and what I believe to be his pet. His pet always wanted to be with him, while the fisherman wanted to protect him. I remember the scene when the “fish” is pulling them around, and the man hangs off of his machine to pickup his pet. Sometimes through out this film, I was reminded of a boy and his dog type story. I also thought the story was a cool concept about how this man goes out and uses his machinery and technology to go fishing.

            I also thought the animation on this film was done incredibly well. I thought they did a very good job of animating the fisherman and his pet. The background and machinery was also done beautifully. When the laser was shot into the ground it looked amazing. I loved how the dust blew around afterwards, and appreciated the work it took to make it. I thought this was the best, and most beautiful film that we have watched over the past few weeks, and it also contained a great story.
