Introducing a groundbreaking technique that seamlessly merges computer-generated and hand-drawn animation techniques, first-time director John Kahrs takes the art of animation in a bold new direction with the Oscar®-nominated short, "Paperman." Using a minimalist black-and-white style, the short follows the story of a lonely young man in mid-century New York City, whose destiny takes an unexpected turn after a chance meeting with a beautiful woman on his morning commute. Convinced the girl of his dreams is gone forever, he gets a second chance when he spots her in a skyscraper window across the avenue from his office. With only his heart, imagination and a stack of papers to get her attention, his efforts are no match for what the fates have in store for him. Created by a small, innovative team working at Walt Disney Animation Studios, "Paperman" pushes the animation medium in an exciting new direction.

Saw it when I took my nephews to see Wreck-It Ralph; thought it was beautiful then and still do. Excellent little film.
 
ya, very nicely done. She does look like Ariel, and how the paper plane hops towards the end reminds me how the 7 dwarves hop and say hi ho, hi ho.

It, however, has a slight hint of japanese anime feel, specifically the boss.
 
Says the fucking video is private! I logged in and nothing!

They made it a paid video (yes, YouTube has VOD rentals and purchases) quite a while back. Then, it had the wrong synopsis (from some "Paper Man" movie with Lisa Kudrow). I think they finally fixed that.
