Cupidon


Cupid is bored. Just plain bored. Well, wouldn’t you be if all you did all day everyday is shoot people? A moment’s distraction, however, can lead to all sorts of problems as Cupid finds when one of his arrows goes astray.

This joyful animated short is by five ESMA students, Simon Bau, Clémentine Choplain, Marie Ecarlat, Benoît Huguet and Julien Soulage who completed the short as part of their degree studies.

This is a great showcase for the animators involved here, who give their imagination full reign as Cupid rushes through the skies of Paris trying to put right his mistake. Of course, one solution can just as easily lead to another problem…
