Here's a surreal kind of film I made on a rural property in South Australia (Kangaroo Island to be exact.) A toy robot comes face to face with a nest of angry bull ants with devastating consequences. You can see a fair bit of swarming action (for which these ants are well known for when an intruder comes too close to their nest.)

I had the voice of Bender saying " Bite my shiny metal a$$ " in my mind throughout the vid.

Nice one!
