I think the video above is the best animated infographic I’ve ever seen.

It’s for the upcoming documentary Waiting for Superman, by the makers of An Inconvenient Truth. Waiting for Superman is a documentary about a United States public education system that inhibits, rather than encourages, academic growth. The U.S. regularly finishes in the bottom chunk of developed nations’ education polls. The nation that vowed to leave no child behind is doing just that.

The animation was made by the creative-types at Buck. I’m really jealous that I didn’t make this infographic, for a film that I’d really like to do work for. Nice work gentlemen/gentleladies.

Find out more about the film, and watch the trailer at www.waitingforsuperman.com.

Nothing like a Lego stop motion short film. This is for you action junkies. It is shocking how many times this same genre of Lego films has been attempted. Warning: If you become faint at the sight of blood or red Playdo please watch at your own risk.

Here is a video from Renaud Tanned that looks at the visualization of music. There is a certain elegance to the animation that really compliments the music and overall feel. Great work.

This week, GoogleLabs released Google Image Swirl – an adaptation of their ‘Find Similar Images’ technology already being used in Google Images – which provides a smooth Flash interface that groups like images into stacks of thumbnails. When you click a stack, Image Swirl shows that image and other like images, and other like images of that. It allows you to dynamically hone in on images based on their appearance and content.

Pretty cool stuff. Smooth transitions. And it simply works. No hiccups for me.

Search something at image-swirl.googlelabs.com.

We posted the teaser trailer to Toy Story 3 a while back – but the real trailer has been released. I didn’t realize it’s been 10 years since Toy Story 2 was released in 1999. Crazy. Enjoy!

I’m 25 years old. To say I’m excited for a third Toy Story is the understatement of the year. Well… I guess it’ll be the understatement of next year because that’s when it comes out. Summer 2010. How can I possibly wait that long? View the Toy Story 3 site.

I’m a sucker for stop-motion music videos, and drawing… this is a great combo of both. Autumn Story from Firekites’ album ‘The Bowery’. Co-directed by Yanni Kronenberg and Lucinda Schreiber
