Short film: A stick figure drawing destroys the computer that drew it


What happens when the crude artwork you draw in Photoshop becomes sentient and gains superpowers and starts darting across your desktop screen with weapons? A whole lot of desktop destruction. Even worse, the stick figure will draw goons to help them ruin your computer forever. But it'll be fun to see.


It's been a while since we've seen Alan Becker's Animation vs Animator series. He writes:



The struggle between a stick figure and its creator, a computer animator. In this fourth installment, the animator is finally shown in real life interacting with his computer monitor. The stick figure, resisting his tormentor, attacks his social life by hacking his Facebook account, traveling onto his iPhone via USB cord, and drawing animations of his own to dismantle the animation interface.



The first few minutes of the video sets up the back story of the stick figure so it starts off a little slow. I really enjoyed it when the stick figure jumps to the iPhone through a USB cable around the 5 minute mark.
