Skhizein - short film by Jeremy Clapin Having been struck by a 150-ton meteorite, Henry has to adapt to living precisely ninety-one centimeters from himself. An animated short that runs for only 13 minutes, this tells the rather comical and yet sad story of a man affected by a meteorite in a most peculiar way. Once he has been struck he finds that his body is now constantly 91 centimetres from where it should be. To open a door, sit down, answer his telephone, etc, he has to perform all of the actions exactly 91 centimetres away from where he normally would, laws of physics having taken a long walk off a short pier. With a warm, wonderfully rendered style and a mixture of great detail and enjoyably abstract moments, this little piece of animation is, quite frankly, an absolute joy. The bizarre central concept is brilliantly realised and handled so well that you never laugh AT the ridiculousness of the whole thing although you do get a chance to laugh ALONG with a number of great moments.

Creating something that’s visually attractive and unique takes an artist’s eye. Designers often stress out far too much about the layout process. In this article we’re going to take a look at ten very common layouts that you can find on countless sites across the web.

How to Create a Wordpress Theme from Scratch Following on from the recent article on "PSD to HTML", this tutorial will look at taking a HTML/CSS template and turning it into a functioning WordPress theme. There is so much you can do when creating your own theme we couldn't nearly cover it all. So, we're going to look at how themes are structured, creation of the core files and splitting up that index.html file. The structure of a WordPress theme is fairly simple, I like to start with the CSS file. Because this is such a large topic we're splitting it into a two part series - this part making a simple but functioning theme from a standard HTML & CSS template, and the second part will look at adding more of the advanced features. I will be working on turning the great template "Typography Paramount" by Six Shooter Media into a simple WordPress theme. The style sheet is the defining file of the theme for WordPress. The code above is all contained in a comment, so it won't affect the style definitions. Continue to Part 2.
