Flix for Short: Space Stallions

0

This opening to the fictional 80s cartoon Space Stallions is a Bachelor film project from The Animation Workshop in Denmark. It uncannily evokes the feel of those cartoons from my childhood, like Silverhawks, Thundercats, He-Man, BraveStarr, Galaxy Rangers, and Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors.

Kudos to the entire team responsible for this short, particularly Arna Snæbjørnsdottir, Ágúst Kristinsson, Esben J. Jespersen, Jonatan Brüsch, Polina Bokhan, Thorvaldur S. Gunnarsson, and Touraj Khosravi. And big-ups to Friðfinnur Oculus Sigurðsson for doing the music as well. If this was a real show in the 80s, I would have watched the hell out of it.
