Ataque de Pánico! (Panic Attack!) 2009
From filmstalker [excerpt], Uruguyan director Federico Alvarez created a short film, less than five minutes in length, that showed the destruction of a city by an invading force of flying machines and gigantic robots. The scenes of destruction and the merging of CG and the landscape around them are superbly done, and the closing idea is interesting. However there's not much else.
So it's a surprise that on the strength of that short, which you can see below, Alvarez received offers from DreamWorks, Fox, Warner Bros. and the Weinstein Company, and even more surprising that out of all of them he has signed a deal with Sam Raimi's much smaller production company.

That's pretty damn cool, but I wouldn't have thought it so unique at this point. Although now that I think of it, that's probably wrong. This is a far cry from Transformers or Sky Captain, which is what I'm thinking of.
The best part is the robots seen through the mist in the beginning. Evocative.
