We’ve been adding pretty consistently to our ongoing Vimeo channel, the Indie Animation Mixtape, but if you aren’t following us on Vimeo, you might not see a lot of what’s there. So, we’re going to make a point of sharing a list of new additions to the channel here on the QAS blog every so often. No expansive writeups or detailed insights, but at the very least, it’ll be a good stream of noteworthy films for your ongoing enjoyment.
This week, we finally got around to adding an all-time classic in Hedgehog in the Fog, along with a piece of Montreal history, an exploration of high strangeness, and more.
