Perfil

Filmes

Beyond Noh

Director

"Beyond Noh" rhythmically animates 3,475 individual masks from all over the world, beginning with the distinctive masks of the Japanese Noh theater and continuing on a cultural journey through ritual, utility, deviance, and politics.

Candy Shop

Director

Pills and capsules are choreographed into a cacophony of shape, color and size, resulting in a satirical commentary about our cultural, recreational, and economic infatuation with prescription drugs.

Gun Shop

Director

There are currently 393 million firearms in the US. This film shows 2328 of them. Take a look. Blink, and you’ll miss five. The frightening visual power of guns gets a whimsical treatment with jazz percussion, and a sizeable dose of cultural irony.

Pour 585

Director

In a dystopian world populated by animated wine glasses, a timid character tries to escape an important rite of passage.

Puppet

Director

Through an escalating series of torture, a possessed sock puppet embodies fear and willful self-destruction.

Handshake

Director

In this animated film, an innocent greeting between two people is quickly transformed into a tangled struggle, illustrating the twists and turns of a love affair. Relationships are visceral attachments, often leading to one dominating and consuming the other, then moving on easily and heartlessly. This film is autobiographical, a visual metaphor of an experience I had in my youth with one of my first girlfriends, perhaps the first love of my life. We learn a lot from experiences like this.

Drink.

Director

A boy drinks from a strange potion and discovers the many layers of his identity.
