Description:


    “My Happy End” is a short film about the friendship of a dog with his own tail. Told in an innovative combination of different animation techniques, the film is an homage to traditional stop-motion animation. The technique is a mix of hand-drawn animation on paper, stop motion, and 3D computer animation.

    Brief synopsis: All dogs chase their tails. Sometimes a dog succeeds in catching his own tail. That changes his life because he finds his best friend there.
