A boy eats everything in his path but he doesn't know when to stop. This is a major project by Australia based animator Kim Young Ha (aka Flew) for his RMIT Animation course. Kim says "I am really interested in human nature and how people react to problems. Sometimes, unexpected things happen and one may have to take an unexpected step to deal with the situation. Greedy Boy explores behaviour that I think everyone is capable of and what happens if we can’t control it."
I love this kind of overly stretchy feel that you can (so far) only achieve by hand drawn traditional animation, Kim has given the character a naive and likable personality, you can see the insatiability in his eyes and the more his greed grows, the more fantastical his world seems. Fantastic and empty, I should say. Enjoy!
