Plot Device: a filmmaker's fondest dream and worst nightmare

Plot Device: a filmmaker's fondest dream and worst nightmare: "

Plot Device from Red Giant on Vimeo.

When an aspiring filmmaker adds a 'Plot Device' to his Amazon shopping basket, he doesn't realize that he's just upended his life with a box that transports him from one action scene to another. It's a great, funny, exciting short film, and a clever way to advertise a low-cost video-effects package.

'Plot Device,' a nine minute short film directed by Seth Worley, and executive produced by Red Giant's own Aharon Rabinowitz. Aharon and Seth co-wrote the film, working together in close collaboration throughout the project. Plot Device was created to demonstrate first hand the high caliber work that can be created when using Magic Bullet Suite 11, even on a limited budget.

Snail attack

I am revolted and yet I cannot look away. I always knew snails were violent killers but this is more information then I can process right now.

Snail attack:

I'm just going to quote from the YouTube description of this video.

Native snails in NZ are big, mean and carnivorous. They hunt their prey by stealth. When the attack comes, it is sudden, ruthless and fatal.

This is the best thing I've heard since the guy from the Smithsonian National Zoo told me about the time he was bitten by a sloth, a story which included the words, 'It all happened so fast.'

Tender Moment Between Ants

So even though I cannot see this video was amazing.  If you are not into ants I suggest skipping this one.  Or maybe you are exactly the type who should watch this.  I dunno but Treehugger again brings me an interesting video I probably would not have found otherwise.

I discovered it here on Treehugger:
