Tomas Nilsson, a graphic design student from Linköping University, tells the story of Little Red Riding Hood with animated infographics. The video (below) was inspired by Röyksopp’s Remind Me and has that ever so familiar European electronica music moving things along. Covering topics from grandma’s nutritional value to the aerodynamics of the traveling bus, the video is very tongue in cheek and totally worth the three minutes of your life.
[Thanks, Jesse]
Well worth three minutes of my life!
Very nice!
Loved it! I just wish that I could get the images a bit larger so that I could read more of the info!

This is so much better than Disney animation.
i agree was worth three minutes as it tried to stream. love the necessity of stats about VW and the mathematical calculations of the trajectroy of a bullet. amused me how the old dear is devoured.. my spelling is prob incorrect.
thx
This is so great.
But, you know even with the “clinicalized” design approach to the story, I’m still sad for the characters.
@Allison
I was thinking the same thing. In fact, the bloodless sanitization actually makes the scene with the grandmother especially creepy. Remarkable effect.

lol, it seems Röyksopp is the defacto band of the infographics world.
Argh! Could you please please please please stop using such ridiculously silly non-descriptive marketing names as electronica? >:(
Anyways thanks for letting me find another fine piece of music! :)
you’re welcome?…
Amazing ! Congrats !
Quick question: what is a common tool to create animations like this? I assume Flash, but perhaps I’m mistaken?
