On Monday Crackle launched
“Crackle, a Sony Pictures Entertainment Company formerly known as Grouper, is a streaming entertainment network dedicated to the discovery and development of pioneering video creators across a diverse range of genres. Crackle delivers programmed and customized video streams to a global audience via a multi-platform, syndication network that includes Sony devices, IPTV, leading social networks and one-click viral web distribution. Crackle launches the most innovative creators with on-going collaboration with Sony Pictures Entertainment and other leading media partners.” Crackle.com
Upon visiting the site I watched a great animation called ‘Papiroflexia’, a great example example of innovation in my opinion, *which I have embedded below* another great animation I found called ‘Handshake’, this was voiceless as Papiroflexia was, the music and actions worked very effectively.
There are in fact contests which act as an incentive to media makers, with prizes such as a pitch meeting with columbia pictures, a 2 day animation lab and a 15 minute set at the famous IMPROV stage in LA.
I will certainly be checking back on Crackle for videos like Papiroflexia now and then.
