Adam and Dog is a beautifully designed, realized and animated short (14 minutes) written and directed by Disney visual development artist Minkyu Lee, assisted by a group of friends from other animation studios like Dreamworks and Pixar.
The story — of man, dog and woman — unfolds slowly and wordlessly against a series of strikingly beautiful backgrounds.
You can get an idea from a one minute trailer on Vimeo, and see the entire short on YouTube.
I can’t find a site for Lee, but there is a Tumblog with pencil tests, the official poster and a list of the crew.

No comment ? Much much better than the Paperman. Beautiful idea and great backgrounds.
Thanks for the comment, Li-An. My thought about Paperman wasn’t that I preferred it to hand drawn animation like this, but that I preferred it to mainstream CGI animation.
No problem, I understand perfectly your point of view :-)
