the Blunt Umbrella

I think this is just what I need in this time of day.

You know that the Earth is getting hotter, and the nice and warm sunshine can be merciless to your skin by inflicting *God forbid* skin cancer. *shivers*

That's why I always carry my trusted umbrella in my bag, and use it EVERYWHERE. I may look uncool or oh-so-granny-like, but one thing I know, it will be even more un-cool if I have skin cancer! :P

So..

This is just what I need. :)
A Blunt Umbrella!

You know how the sides of your umbrella can actually "poke" someone in the face? :D
Ah, with this cool invention, worry not people, poke no more! And we can keep on using our umbrellas everywhere without worry of hurting other people. :D

Nice! :)

I don't really understand the correlation between the title of this short movie with the movie itself, but what I do know that this is one MAD piece of art!

Every scene is so pretty, and carefully proportioned.
And I should also warn you, bear in mind that none of what you about see is real footage! This isn’t VFX, it’s fully created with a mix of 3dsmax, Vray, After Effects, and Premiere.

And all by one person, Alex Roman *hand clapping sound fx* :D

It's just amazing. How reality can now LITERALLY being manufactured.
So who actually knows what's wrong and what's right? Or what's true and what's lies in this world?? *sigh*

Anyway...

Enjoy!! :D
