Silver Ant

(October 7, 2011-)
Visuals: On a dimly lit beige background, we see a robotic ant with glowing orange eyes walking from the left, holding a paper cut-out of itself. Heading to the right side of the screen, the robot steadily puts up the cut-out and then runs off. The screen then zooms out from the ant, revealing the text "Times New Roman" while the ant readjusts the camera. Making sure the camera is still, the ant runs towards the cut out and tosses it away, creating a large crash sound as the robot swooshes in between the text and a trademark symbol rolls from the right. The ant is briefly seen looking at the trademark symbol and then back towards us.

Technique: 3D animation.

Audio: The ant's movements, walking and running, a whoosh and then a loud crash sound when the cut out copy is tossed away, a cartoony whoosh as the ant swooshes in between the text, metallic sounds of the trademark symbol rolling, and finally a shakuhachi sting.

Availability: Seen on Sea Level (aka SeeFood).
