It's an original story called "A Gotham Fairytale. It was created by Mauricio Abril, and it contains over 200 black and white illustrations. The video is set to the music of Muse's "Knights of Cydonia.


Pretty well done fan made art.

Very good and interesting art style. I love the visuals but the music takes me right out of it. A better selection of music would make this fantastic.
Here are some animated shorts made by DCU on cartoon network in the last year-my two favorites:

Batman in Shanghai- 3 and a half minutes of Batman, Catwoman, and Bane imagined in 1920's Shanghai.

YouTube

Wonder Woman- 3 shorts imagining Steve Trevor, Amazons, Giganta, and Wonder Woman as a 70's, Surfergirl with an invisible muscle car- about a minute and a half each.

I loved that Bat Man of Shanghai short. Was that the same animator that did Champloo? The style looked very very similar.


Schex, I was down with that short too. I love that song. It made the story more exciting than it should've been imo. The music would've matched up even better with Batman going against a more physical opponent. Bane or Deathstroke perhaps.

I just Wiki'd it and it looks like they are separate animation studios. Love the style though.
I actually like the song for the Batman short as a music piece... but I felt like it needed greater depth and tempo changes to match the illustrations. It was just too much the same the entire short for me. Opened strong musically and then kinda blah as far as mirroring the story, but of course that's just an opinion.
