“The Mysterious Geographic Explorations of Jasper Morello” (2005) is fantastic short film by Anthony Lucas created using silhouette animation. It was released on YouTube last last year by Monster Distributes and is also available on DVD.

Set in a world of iron airships, this silhouette animation tells the story of Jasper Morello, a disgraced aerial navigator who flees his plague-ridden home hoping to redeem himself. His expedition leads him to an island which is home to a monster that may hold the cure for the Plague. The journey back is filled with dangers but, Jasper soon discovers that the greatest horror of all lies within man himself.

Wow this is a great video! Haven’t seen anything like it. Now I’m going to have to spend my time scouring the web for more silhouette animation. :)
