Sacha Goedegebure (who directed Big Buck Bunny) created this short film about a gnome with sleeping problems.
Recently we submitted our short film Gnome to the Digicon6 competition. We'll still do some minor changes for our own release on Vimeo, youtube and festivals, but we'd like to share this version.
Gnome was animated in Maya. Blender was used for the lighting, rendering and compositing.
Make sure to crank up the volume and watch in HD:
If you enjoy it, make sure to click the heart.

That is so charming and funny! great film.
It's great small story. Characters are lovely and full of... well, character ;) Especially the gnome. Environment and render are also top notch.
One small thing: the grass on the very first shots need some more reaction, now it ends moving in one frame.
Excellent! Great sound design!
Spectacular job, I really enjoyed it!
Especially the ambiance (visual and sound) and lighting.
Congratulations, Sacha and everyone involved! The quality of everything is really high, top notch work from my side.
Thanks, Enrico! Good to hear this from you!
Congratulations
Very beautiful work
How export animeted characther from Maya To Blender
Making Off please
For those interested, we used MDD for deformed mesh, and FBX for non-deformed mesh, to transfer the animation from maya to blender.
MDD is a code?
good solution
I will investigate about
Thanks for commenting
So beautiful!
I can't seem to watch this short on my Linux system. No playable sources found it says.
The player requires flash, do you have that installed?
I have flash but still nothing.. No playable source found
I have no idea what could cause that. All I can say is that it plays fine here..
Beautiful work
