MUTE is an animated short about a world populated by people born without a mouth. When a gory accident leads to the discovery they are able to create their own mouth by cutting themselves, this releases an enthusiastic chain reaction among the population…
This 4 minute cgi short has been created by Job, Joris & Marieke, a Dutch studio for animation, illustration, character design and music. In 2011 Job, Joris & Marieke made the music video ‘I’ll take you along’ for Dutch rapper Gers Pardoel which has been viewed over 15 million times. The music was made by Happy Camper, and all voices were done by Fresku!
MUTE premiered at the Dutch Film Festival in the Golden Calf competition and was screened at the Anim’est festival in Bucarest. More festival news can be found on the MUTE website

The Making:
We shoted MiniLook Kiev with Canon 550D, during 5 days and 2 nights, shoted over 25,000 frames, from all of them we used about 4,500. The post-production was the hardest part of the creation, it took us a few good months, but finally it’s done!
Watch in HD! Enjoy the Kiev”!
PES: In this follow-up to his stop-motion hit Western Spaghetti, director PES transforms familiar objects into Fresh Guacamole.
“A lot of those ingredients look a bit questionable. I’d say eating that Guacamole would be a bit of a gamble” :).
