The Blue Umbrella



''The Blue Umbrella is a 2013 Pixar computer-animated short film that was released alongside Monsters University. The short is directed by Saschka Unseld of Pixar's technical department. The short featured new techniques in photorealistic lighting, shading, and compositing.'' -Wikipidia   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Blue_Umbrella_(2013_film)


This is an amazing animation about the love story of two umbrellas. Their emotions are shown by these simple facial expressions and the change in shapes of the umbrella which are different from a living character who has hands,arms and legs to carry more emotional changes during the story. The designers excluded the umbrellas' nose that simplify their face even more and I think this makes the umbrellas look adorable. What is more, the eyes are like comma which could show direction of where the umbrella look while expressing more interesting facial expressions.

The colours and the shapes really help indicating the gender of the umbrellas. 

Additionally, the umbrellas are designed to match the outlook of the couple.
