The animation studio Pinkman.TV has engaged rendering services of Summus Render for his short film “The Witness” directed by Alberto Mielgo.

The short is the third episode of the 18 sci-fi short films that make up the anthological series of self-contained stories Love, Death + Robots, produced by Tim Miller and David Fincher and distributed by Netflix.

With “The Witness” the Spanish animation takes the lead with a short that has been rated as the best, impressive, and most elaborate of the series thanks to its spectacular scene, the use of colors and a successful music. After seeing a brutal murder, a woman (Emily O’Brien) flees from the killer through the streets of a surreal city.
