Yesterday we had a look at the individual cards designed by Manija Emran and Henry Hobson and today we get them fully animated. I'm speaking, of course, of the amazing art pieces featured at the 2014 Oscars created for each of the nine Best Picture nominees -- The Wolf of Wall Street, 12 Years a Slave, Gravity, Her, Philomena, Nebraska, Dallas Buyers Club, Captain Phillips and American Hustle -- with animation done by Justin Sucara and produced by Elizabeth Newman for Mill+. There were a lot of things the Oscars got right this year and these nine graphics were among them. Kudos.
