Gilliam's Animated Shorts
The animated shorts that Gilliam created are organic pieces, moving along with a twisted purpose. The actions of the animation may appear outrageous to the viewer but the objects performing these actions do them in a logical and completely realized (for them) way. This only renders them even more absurd. Each object and action are unrelated and yet related to the animation preceding it through some sort of (often-incidental) link. An item in one scene (say a car) will play a background part and then open up to be the lead for the next scene. He often creates fully realized stop motion colleges full of images that may seem unrelated to each other but are in fact part of a larger action.
