Caminandes is an independently produced series of computer animated short films created by Pablo Vazquez (was born in Río Gallegos, Santa Cruz Province, Argentina[1]), produced and released by the Blender Foundation.[2][3]
Etymology
The title "Caminandes" is a portmanteau of the Spanish word "caminar" ("to walk") and Andes, the longest continental mountain range in the world.[2] The subtitles of episodes 2 and 3 are also portmanteaus of various Spanish words.
Plot
The films center on Koro the llama[a] and his attempts to overcome various obstacles in Patagonia.
- Caminandes 1: Llama Drama (2013)
Koro has trouble crossing an apparent desolate road, a problem that an unwitting Armadillo does not share.
- Caminandes 2: Gran Dillama (2013)
Koro hunts for food on the other side of a fence and is once again inspired by the Armadillo but this time to a shocking effect.
- Caminandes 3: Llamigos (2016)
Koro meets Oti, a pesky magellanic penguin, in an epic battle over tasty red berries during the winter.
Production
The films, inspired by the cartoons of Chuck Jones,[5] are created using FLOSS (Free/Libre Open Source Software) such as[2]
- Blender, a professional free and open-source 3D computer graphics software
- GIMP, a free and open-source raster graphics editor
- Krita, a free and open-source raster graphics editor based on Qt 5 and the KDE Frameworks 5
- Linux, a Unix-like computer operating system assembled under the model of free and open-source software development and distribution
The first film was produced by Pablo Vazquez, Beorn Leonard and Francesco Siddi with a soundtrack by Jan Morgenstern.[2] Hjalti Hjalmarsson, Andy Goralczyk and Sergey Sharybin joined the production team for the second film.[3]
Awards
Jan Morgenstern won the 2014 Jerry Goldsmith award for "Best Score for an Animated Short Film" at the International Film Music Festival in Córdoba, Spain, for Gran Dillama.[6][7]
