Two Trailers for Serbian Sci-Fi Animated Film TECHNOTISE: EDIT AND I

Chalk this up under "Holy crap, where did this came from?"

Have you ever complained that there is hardly any originality in recent animation? Well, Aleksa Gajić's Technotise: Edit and I (Technotise: Edit I Ja), the first Serbian animated feature film, looks far from being unoriginal, both in style and substance. Based on Aleksa's own graphic novel series he written and drew himself, the film was in production for several years before its finally completed. Over at the official site, there is some artwork, sound bites from the voice cast and a downloadable trailer. Wikipedia has the skinny on this under-the-radar animation as followed:

The plot is set in Belgrade in 2074. The main character is Edit, a female psychology student. After her sixth failure at the same university exam, she decides to have the chip installed to help her pass. From that moment, her life changes and unusual things start happening to her.

In technical terms, the film is combination of four kinds of animations. The main aesthetic model for the film was Japanese anime, realistic drawing with static scenes, with emphasized atmosphere and with authentic artistic expression. It was completed over an 8 year period using classic 2D, improved 3D and vector animation.

Its expected to premiere in November. You'll find the two trailers below after the jump.
