Joe Gibbons plays Dr. Joe Baldwin, the self-styled child education expert who prepares Zoe from birth, for acceptance into a coveted gifted-only kindergarten program. What becomes evident is one man’s misguided quest to manipulate pitted against one child’s exuberant resistance to being controlled.
Director
Psychologically disturbed Professor Herville (Joe Gibbons) analyzes the literary classic Moby Dick. He gives a tour of the Herman Melville Museum and makes much ado about the book’s Oedipial themes. Breer mixes in footage of the Hollywood adaptation starring Gregory Peck and her own irrepressible animation.
Writer
A real-time video-meets-digital animation trilogy of shorts featuring the highly excited (and mildly delusional) Joe Gibbons. Brilliant computer animation by collaborator Emily Breer provides an additional layer of biting commentary.

The inspiration for MOONA LUNA came from my wish to make a painting in which I could evolve. That summer it had been twenty years since we had walked on the moon. I was jealous of that, so I decided to paint my walls to make a lunar decoration. During the fall I traveled across Europe and wrote a lot. Moona Luna is the result of these two moments.
This is my first trip to the moon. On the set I authorized Doctor Bonami to become Mr. Bad Actor. Virgins always say everything, so I kept the first shot. The story evokes three sailors working on a French boat and a professor of physics. There may not be whales, but there are many other things.

BRUTE CHARM consists primarily of images of animals I shot in Africa, combined with animation on an optical printer. A steady stream of conscious and unconscious visual choices loosely constructs a journey through the animal kingdom and my thoughts which developed around it. BRUTE CHARM is an exploration into our unsocialized selves. Lion Sex Flamingo Death and a yellow rubber glove in the Kenyan wild. There's mud in your Ear easier than an Elephant thru the eye of the beholder.
Director
Out of time, out of reach of voice, fuzzy and without logic, skeletons dance with raw meat spinning. A horse race within the walls of Berlin. And two halves that leave a gaping hole.

A super fast fiction about a Dionysian type superhero who must sometimes get rid of his Batman side, a little too nice. SUPERHERO is my amused response to our tradition of comic book heroes.
