Animated shorts in Rhinebeck
Upstate Films, everyone's favorite indie moviehouse, is screening "The Animation Show 3" tonight at 8:20 and Wednesday and Thursday at 6 p.m.
The series of animated shorts, curated by Mike Judge and Don Hertzfeldt, is an international mix of Academy Award nominees and filmfest winners.
"City Paradise" (right), about a young woman who discovers a secret underground city inhabited by friendly aliens, uses a mix of live action, 2D and 3D animation.
Ron Wrake's "Rabbit" employs Dick and Jane style illustration to tell the story of a boy and girl who find an idol in the stomach of a rabbit.
"The Animation Show 3" is rated PG-13.
Tickets cost $7.50 and $4.50 for members.

City Paradise looks cool. It's hard to mix live-action and animation effectively, so I remain cautious, but the screenshots look pretty cool.
