Fran and Will Interview on CartoonBrew

Cartoon Brew

Cartoon Brew

Amid Amidi over at Cartoon Brew just posted an interview with Will and me about Upstate Four and the trials of pitching to a network. Worth a read if you’re wondering what we’ve been up to.

Estonian Cartoons Online!

Just what I needed! Today I noticed that two of my favorites from Estonia are viewable online. Ulo Pikkov’s “Bermuda”, winner of the Director’s Prize at SAFO ‘99, and Jano Poldma’s “On The Possibility of Love”. Have fun!

On the possibility of love from Juliet on Vimeo.

Update:

Ulo says “I have no idea who is Juliet but I already like her :)

Also, he and Priit Parn are teaching at a new animation program in Estonia – “ANIMASTER” – where his title is “Extraordinary Assistant Professor”

My Favorite Cartoon

Yesterday someone asked me about my cartoon influences, and I thought I’d share one here. Luckily, it’s available online.

Amy Kravitz showed Mark Baker’s “The Hill Farm” in Animation II class, and I was amazed. This is the film that made me avoid dialog. Check out the layered steps of timing as the photographer gets increasingly close to the bear’s head. I wish there was a full version online that didn’t look like a second-generation VHS copy, but you can see a 30-second clip on Mark’s website.
