The Mighty T is a super cute animated short film describing the work going on at the Ben Towne Center for Childhood Cancer Research. It's purely PR, but it's a well done short animation for a great cause. Directed by Colin Hesterly, who also directed the adorable When I Grow Up

The film is made by Academy Creative.
Makers of some other memorable shorts and music videos:

A Short History of the GIF (PS: "Jif.")
Macklemore - The Town
Fleet Foxes - White Winter Hymnal
Poor Moon - Holiday - I'd never heard it, but it features Tom Skerrit whose mistreatment of Ellie Arroway will never be forgiven.

All of these links pulled from their Vimeo profile, and their site. (Which has couple nice behind the scenes drawings for animation nerds). The original was stumbled on via stellar.io.

That was cute. I couldn't place the narrator until the very end and now I feel stupid.

OK, these things were so stylish, I took a screenshot of the opening for my folder full of good graphic design examples. May these guys someday do a series that I would watch the shit out of.
