Microcosmic city is a short 3D animation combined with 2D elements that tell a story about a microcosmic world existing within a little boy’s marble. The story begins when the boy drops his marble into a playset. This sets off a chain of reactions for the inner world of the marble, which finds itself in tumult. Bold color and geometric forms reminiscent of children’s toys make up the marble world. The goofy humanoid citizens that inhabit this world experience a brief disruption as the marble spins, but shortly thereafter return to their daily lives.

 

Inspired by the history of geometric abstraction in art and design, this film constructs a playful, colorful environment suggestive of child’s play, which will amuse and delight the viewer.
