The title says it all, really. There's been very few hidden gems revealed on Cartoon Brew for a while, at least as far as the main articles go. There, however have been two of interest recently in the Artist of the Day feature.
The first is Anca Damian's film Magic Mountain. It's a documentary that blends photography with animation. It's about Adam Jacek Winkler, a Polish anti-Communist who fought in the Soviet-Afghan war.

The second is a film in progress: Dax Norman and Neil Anderson-Himmelspach's film Leptune. It appears to be an art piece in motion from the teaser available on Vimeo.

In addition to these two films, there's an interesting OVA. I never got very interested in the plot, but it's worth seeing for the visuals alone. It's called California Crisis: Gun Salvo, from Studio Unicorn and directed by Mizuho Nishikubo who also directed Giovanni's Island and Radio City Fantasy. Thanks to DustinKop from The Artifice for discovering this for me.
