"'nstaCharge," Igor Choromanski's charming animated short, was recently accepted into the Burbank International Film Festival, in Burbank, California.

It's a quick peak at Rusty, a rickety old droid, coveting the new batteries of Lola, a hot young fembot. The film is only two minutes long, but it is packed with clever character design (Lola's body becomes her own motorcycle) and beautiful imagery.

Choromanski describes the animation
Igor said of the animation, "Most of my creations come into being in a creative kitchen of sorts. I take a piece of paper and a pencil and start putting down whatever ingredients I have a craving for at the time. With ''nstaCharge,' I was fascinated with the idea of a robot whose body would double as a frame of a motorcycle."

Future plans for Rsuty the robot
We expect you'll see and hear a lot more about the Emmy-nominated filmmaker who was an animator on "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs" and "Cats and Dogs 2." He has big plans for his little robot including a feature film.

He explained, "I just finished writing a script extending '‘nstaCharge' into a feature length film and we’ve already had some promising interest in it. Cross your fingers."
