Have Heart - an Animation Short Film

Have Heart - an Animation Short Film by Will Anderson!

A looping animated GIF has an existential crisis.

"At one point or another, it’s happened to all of us — a sudden realization that you’re simply repeating yourself with little satisfaction. You pick up your phone, scroll through social media, hit “like” a few times, then continue on with your routine. Rinse and repeat. Now imagine one of those adorable GIFs you’ve just “double-tapped” is living the same exact experience. In this week’s Staff Pick Premiere, award-winning animator Will Anderson imagines the life of an animated GIF after its shift is over and the walls start caving in. An existential crisis born out of a culture hungry for internet fame, “Have Heart” starts with an endless loop and develops into one of the most relatable, original, and darkly comedic films we’ve seen in a long time".
