In Tee Ken Ng's amazing animated Vine, a projected bird flies around a room:

And then we have Marlo Meekins, who works in TV animation in LA and is a self-proclaimed "Bigshot Vine Performer/Artist". This one's called "Citizen Kanine," and she deserves an award for the title alone.

Another clever dog-related Vine is this one by the hilarious Fiona Bradford (@Fionzone on Twitter):

Just try to wrap your head around how Doodle Dan made this stunning Vine:

Scotty Wish threw in a little existentialism for his stick figure animation entry:

Finally, some claymation! Dara Moss's worms and booger monsters definitely fit the mold for a perfect 6-second Vine.



Musician RedFoo shows off his (very) funny side in this goofy scene involving a set of lost keys.
Dubai-based artist Hassan Kiyany not only produced an unusually high quality Vine with an impressive zoom-in, but demystified the filming experience on his blog and even made a special video with clips of the production process (for those wondering how exactly it was done.)​
