Biography edit

He is known mainly for his science-fiction short films and animations, one of which, Fifty Percent Grey, was nominated for an Academy Award.[1] Fifty Percent Grey was also included in the Animation Show of Shows. The Silent City concerns a group of soldiers wandering through a perilous post-apocalyptic wasteland; the cast includes actor Cillian Murphy.[2] His short film BlinkyTM was released on 20 March 2011, and concerns a robot helper that turns murderous.[3]

He signed on to direct a live action adaptation of Akira, but the project was cancelled after Robinson departed.[4] In 2013, Robinson directed The Last Days on Mars, the adaptation of the science-fiction short story "The Animators" by Sydney J. Bounds.[5] In early 2015 he directed the proof of concept short film The Leviathan,[6] which became a viral hit, spawning talk of a full-length version.[7]
