Figuring out what kind of posthuman characters I want to do, looking at australian artist, Shaun Tan's works, the characters with tall heads are cool, huge brains, thin bodies. Think about technology and human, we are getting more and more information, human's brains may get big, and with less exercises (facing computers all the time), bodies get thin. In this way, the characters look interesting, still thinking the characters may not walk with legs, floating machines instead....
Shaun Tan - the lost thing
(pages of story book)
Eres Unico, directed by Hector Monerris
I like the style of this animation, esp the beginning of it, the shots of sitting on the bed and looking at the mirror, nice lighting! the character is simple and effective, in which I also want to do I guess he is using after effect, a bit of maya, photoshop or may be flash.

That book by Shaun Tan is a great reference. It appears to be inspired in part by the Surrealism movement (almost a century ago!).
Enjoyed the animation- hope to see some surreal character sketches soon...
