Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A Short Vision is a short film, running at around 6 minutes in length, released by the British Film Institute in 1956 and later uploaded to YouTube on the BFI National Archive's account. It was made by Peter and Joan Foldes, and was their last co-made project together.The short film tells of an ambiguous city at night, where human beings sleep, animals hunt and "wise men" (politicians, scientists) observe the skies. A peculiar object appears in the sky, terrifying any creature that sees it. What the film reveals is that this is no ordinary object, and that once it's released, there's no taking it back.A Short Vision featured a stop-motion-like animation style with drawn panels that would show brief transitions. It was shown at least twice on The Ed Sullivan Show, and appeared in public school classrooms as a reel.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Artistic License – Biology | |
| A Short Vision / int_18aff462 | comment |
Artistic License – Biology: A Short Vision is no exception in nuclear war movies to the classic shot of a character's eyeballs melting from the radiation, but whether or not this can actually happen is disputed [1]. Artistic license perhaps rightly applies, considering that Joan and Peter Foldes thankfully had no real-life examples for comparison and used their imaginations. | |

Bloodier and Gorier: The film's shift in tone goes from animated leopards and mice and sleeping babies, to men and women having their faces melting off as they've vaporized by nuclear weapons. | |

Eye Scream | |
| A Short Vision / int_a2b38d3b | comment |
Eye Scream: A man is seen screaming and shutting his eyes. Animation transitions give viewers a grisly sight of the man's eyelids melting away, revealing bulging eyes in their sockets, which then bubble and melt away, revealing empty sockets. | |
