“Cat’s Meow” A short film by Jorge “Jay” Garcia - Ringling College of Art and Design

Wow. This has it all: great animation, great design, and a battle of wills between man and beast (And by beast, I mean cat-beast!) and it’s actually funny.

Everything in this film looks good, including backgrounds and props, from the telephone to the stereo. From the picture frames to a bunch of flowers, every item tells a story that creates that magical sense of place. The character designs actually have real character: you know who they are the moment you look at them. Even though it’s 3D it has that classic cartoon quality of a Tom & Jerry or a Road Runner. I don’t make this comparison lightly, there’s real life in these characters. A winner. Jorge “Jay” Garcia we salute you.

  2. Wow! I am honored to have my short in 4mations! It is great to see that someone does like it! :)

    Thank you so much for the kind words. Ever since I was little I wanted to make cartoons and to hear that I am getting a little closer to a Tom & Jerry is quite an honor, although I know I have much to learn yet.

    Thanks again! It means a lot! :D
