Out Of Sight.

Out of sight is a great animation which has an amazing twist that isn't completely obvious at first but when you realise what the twist is you gain a new appreciation for the animation. Unfortunately i have to spoil the twist in order to talk about why i like this animation so i would recommend watching the animation before reading on.









-SPOILERS START HERE-
The animation itself focuses on showing the viewer what the girl can hear, feel or smell, rather than see, and visually shows the world materialising around her as she discovers parts of it, it also displays the world in a way that could be interpreted from those scenes only alone, such as the lady with a flower head because of the strong perfume, and the flying whale rather than a plane as it would be impossible to tell what it is from the sound alone and the fact that stick she uses is a magic wand to her because it helps her differentiate what things are what in the world. I also like the scene with the cat. She can't tell it's a cat until it meows, but she knows something is there so it is represented as a small ball moving. I love how entertaining the animation is but also how it interprets how the blind experience the world.
