Things Growing Out of Women’s Bodies Posted by Justin Cone A few days ago while checking out FEED, I caught a post about Butterfly, a beautiful vfx short created by Quad and Wizz in Paris. It reminded me of something I’d seen a couple days before, a music video for Emilie Simon’s Fleur de Saison from another French studio called Nobrain. If Butterfly and Fleur de Saison battled it out, say, in a jello wrestling match (with optional chocolate syrup), I’d have to say Butterfly would winÃ¢â‚¬â€?but not without getting really messy first. Butterfly’s compositing is a bit tighter and it doesn’t employ the ubiquitous 3D stroke elements that Fleur de Saison uses. (In Nobrain’s defense, their use of 3D stroke does make sense in the context of the video.) Decide for yourself: Watch Butterfly \| Watch Fleur de Saison Posted on 18 May 2006 \| Tags: miniatures VN:F [1.7.5_995] Rating: 0.0/5 (0 votes cast) 8 responses to “Things Growing Out of Women’s Bodies” Comment by Onur Aksoy: Thursday, May 18th 2006 at 8:15 pm \| I’m a little stuck between the two. The butterflies wings really caught be by suprise. IMHO the end shot however works against the whole nature of the video.

He is a fantastic guy and as an illustrator has done some really nice comic books.

Butterfly is very…clean…with a nice ending. I love Emilie’s fantasy world and find that although some things look very 3D and could have a little more texturing work, I still think overall it looks stunning. A lot of little details.
