Spectacular car chases, an intense hostage crisis, wild animals rampaging through the city… and even more in Logorama! 
"logorama  presents us with an over-marketed world built only from logos and real trademarks (over 2500 of them!) that are destroyed by a series of natural disasters (beginning with a hurricane, cyclone, tidal wave...). logotypes are used to describe an alarming universe (similar to the one that we are living in) with all the graphic signs that accompany us everyday in our lives. this over-organized universe is violently transformed by the cataclysm becoming fantastic and absurd. it shows the victory of the creative against the rational, where nature and human fantasy triumph." -- synopsis via the creators (François Alaux, Herve de Crecy and Ludovic Houplain)
This short won the 2010 Academy Award, category: Animated Short Film.
