This animation reminded me of a poem I had read long back- 'The Cold Within' by James Patrick Kinney. Though, the poem and this short are not identical, the ideas of intolerance, self-sacrifice- or lack thereof, violence, followed by ultimate demise really brought back the nostalgia. What I love is that, you used the word 'timber', which encompasses a wide range of hardwood trees, including birch, which is a symbol of tolerance and sustainability. At the same time, timber is a commonly used firewood as well as finds use in the furniture industries. So, timber is usually undergoing stresses of the heavy machinery or, scorching in the fiery flames. So, timber, as a whole, is a reminder of both sustainability and violence. Using the word 'timber', brings about the fact that, just how not all people are the same, the trees are also very different- they can be greedy, altruistic , brave, cowardly and so on. Anyway, good job, guys! Loved it. ❤

I think this is a perfect example of most people's mindset of taking more and giving less. The bad log tried to take advantage of others, he tried to have more heat without giving anything in return. He ended up dying. If he was more compasionate perhaps he would have lived a happier life and even become friends with the logs. It's not about how much you take, but how much you give... I think. What are your thoughts

From what I get, this seems to be a commentary on how our resources aren’t infinite and that if we keep going down this path, there won’t be enough to survive in the end (for example, deforestation.) It also seems to be speaking about how there are two ways to handle this problem: either everyone can sacrifice their comfort for the good of everyone else, or be selfish and sacrifice everyone else for your own needs (as shown with everyone being willing to feed the flame with part of their body, except for the big one.)

@Alex Galkin You appear to be suffering from the very post-modernism of which you accuse others. I offer this as a sincere warning. Anthropomorphism and empathy have been around for about as long as anthroforms. Calling it postmodern is an ironic example of postmodernism.

Interesting ending: Little stick wakes up to find he has no friends, but off in the distance the sound of trees being chopped down can be heard. This means two things; one, it's sad that more trees are being killed given how barren the land already is in the final shot, BUT, it also means that the little stick will have some new friends now that new timber is being made. It's oddly sad and inspiring at the same time, what dilemma of emotions well done :\

Really? I took it to mean that he’s doomed, anyway, because the bigger threat is the logger. It’s surviving the zombie hoard INSIDE your house, only to look out the window and see that there’s endlessly more OUTSIDE, and that you aren’t going to make it in the long run.

0:32 I just noticed that the little tree boy took a look at each of the three trees. (Which I think was kinda cute) For example, when he looked at the birch tree you could see by his expression that he was slightly surprised by his height. Which I guess makes sense, he is young and doesn’t really know a lot compared to the older tree who probably seen some shit. But I’m probably reading WAY too deep into all this.
