BDM126 French Roast Short Film




French Roast is an animated short film of a pompous man at a coffee shop who soon realises that he forgot his wallet and bides his time buy ordering more coffee.

Year Produced - 2008
Director - Fabrice Joubert
Producer - Eric Bibo Bergeron
Studio who produced it - Pumpkin Factory/Bibo Films
French Roast was a Oscar nomination for best short film animated (2010)
But also won 6 other awards.
The intended style of French Roast is deceptive appearances.
The short film French Roast was appealing to me because without much dialog you can see where the story is going by music, sound and facial expressions. It is a clever way that shows people how appearances are often deceiving and how money cant by kindness.
