Franck Dion ''Monsieur Cok''

This animation created through a mixture of 2D animation, paper cut-outs and stop motion is very well done. It is set in WW1 where bombs are made with the engraving 'Cok' on it. The villain likes to take his employees for granted.

• The animation's main character Barbu is funny without intending to. He comes across as an angry man and does not take to the rudeness that's dished to him in this animation. As the animation progresses, the viewer will definitely find certain parts funny if dark humour is what they understand.
• There is good use of lighting and shading to add depth to the background scenes, the detail in the drawings are not overly done and the viewer can easily guess the time period its set in.
• The sound is done perfectly to time, with a mixture of machinery noises and the character noises all brought together to add life to the animation. It is done very well. The angry shouts of Barbu is  constant through the animation, but this helps to build the character and his traits.
• The storyline has all the right ingredients, a villain and a rival, portraying of these characters are done well because it slows adds bits of information as the animation progresses.
