Space Trash Original story by Aislinn Scofield, Adapted by Andrés Rojo 3-minute 3D animation at 720 x 480 in a space western genre primary audience is art directors that may need my animation services, secondary audience animation festivals and student animation contests. Treatment: The ultimate garbage eater creature becomes a metaphor for the promises and curses that toying with the genetic code may brig to us all. Or curiosity killed the cat. Overview: Two aliens in an old space trash vehicle make a routine stop by Earth (between the moon and earth) to pick up the debris and clean the atmosphere. They locate a metal box with a red button. They pull the box into the ship and they decide to press the button. A green glob comes out of the box, and they find a huge diamond inside the box. They discover that the green thing is alive and that eats trash, and they start to feed it lots of trash. The green thing eats all the trash, and then eats the whole ship too, and then it goes inside its original box and burps a baby box with a cute little red button.
