Review of Fetch

Fetch on Reel 13

I don’t have very much to say about FETCH, the first animated short to be aired by Reel 13 (all of this week’s contestants on reel13.org were animated, so it’s not as if the viewers made it so). It was fine. Cute, funny – the animation is very strong for a student film – though it didn’t appear to be hand drawn so I guess that is less of a novelty these days.. It’s a bit of a one-trick, one-joke pony, but honestly, that’s all you really need for a short film. It’s simple and effective. Eighty percent of the time, the strongest shorts are the least ambitious.
