Self
Animation Outlaws
Himself
Walt Disney said “We have created characters and animated them in the dimension of depth, revealing through them to our perturbed world that the things we have in common far outnumber and outweigh those that divide us.” Outside of Walt himself there are few people who have brought together and united more animators in the history of the genre than Craig "Spike" Decker and Mike Gribble, known to all as Spike & Mike. They created an animation festival that helped launch the careers of John Lasseter, Peter Lord, Will Vinton, Bill Plympton and Mike Judge to name just a few. Their Spike & Mike festival had an enormous impact on animation that was felt the world over. The festival was known as much for the breakthrough animation it presented as the outrageous antics of the founders.

Adam

A flying saucer summarily drops off a solitary man, Adam, on an empty planet. He explores a bit, then, it starts to rain. The saucer returns and drops a box to him marked "SOS" - it has a red button in the middle. He presses it, and the space ship drops an umbrella to him. Later he presses the button when he's hungry and when he wants companionship. The ship delivers food, a dog, a muscular companion, and finally a vivacious woman. The planet is soon populated by squalling children. Adam pushes the button again. The spaceship returns for what is probably the last time: will Adam and Eve get relief?

Mr. Rossi Looks for Happiness
Producer
Where? Far from home,from work and his boss, far from city traffic and his alarm clock, far from the monotony of his life... The farthest away possible. Travelling against time, visiting places of other centuries. How? Thanks to a magic whistle given him by "Fairy Sicura" the most nutty, thoughtless, happy fairy still to be seen around. A golden whistle which can catapult him back into prehistory, or in ancient Rome, in Medieval time, on a desert island, in Fairy tale land, in ancient Egypt, in the far West or in the future.With whom? He travels with Gastone, his boss'dog, tiny,naive and a little bit spoiled : after many adventures he will realize how much more valuable a friend is rather than a cream pie. Will he find it? Yes, but not in the past, not in other centuries, full of incredible and miserable adventures for him. Happiness was much closer,at hand's reach. He only had to think about it... Isnt that right, Mr Rossi?
