CALLALILLY

The film showcases the work of an amazingly gifted artist and doll maker Christy Kane and tells the story of Callalilly from her book Tales of the Sisters Kane.

Past Cool Projects: Bruce Bickford Animation Jam

During a visiting artist workshop with Bruce Bickford I organized at Cal Arts, my students created an animated clay short. With Bruce at the lead, each student continued the shot after the last animator and produced this "stream of clay-conscience" film. The students had fun and learned quite a lot. Check it out.

Past Cool Projects: "LUCKY"

"Lucky" is a film that was made in a stop motion production class I taught at the Gnomon School. Eight talented students came up with a concept, wrote the script, built the sets and puppets, animated and completed all the post work in 10 weeks. It went on to win Best Achievement in Story at the "AnimaZing Spotlight Festival". I'm very proud of what they accomplished. Take a look.

Inter-Dimensional Safari

Here's a clip from my new project. What happens when a large corporation discovers a portal to a fantastic world in another dimension? Nothing good!!
