The Very Old Fairy Tale

A fairy tale about a narcissistic Kolobok who didn't appreciate anyone. Once upon a time there was a grandfather and a grandmother. They lived well, but they had no children and were sad about it. One day grandmother found some flour and baked a Kolobok from it, and it jumped off the stove and came to life. Grandfather and grandmother were happy that they had an heir, and he looked like his grandfather. They began to love him, feed and pamper him. And they decided that it was time for the kolobok to go out and help them, the old people. The colobok heard this, was indignant, saying that he was not born to work, he was born so beautiful, and left them. Who will he meet on his way?

The John Lennon Sketchbook

In 1986, seventeen years after Yoko Ono and John Lennon’s animated conversation about love and six years after the beloved Beatle’s assassination, Ono commissioned independent animator John Canemaker to create a short animated film based on Lennon’s drawings, music, and interviews. Given her penchant for the intersection of art and philosophy, Lennon’s own quirky illustrations, and the odd fact that the couple’s love began in visual poetry long before they met, it was the perfect medium for commemoration.

Balloon Guy

Back in 1987, CGI was still relatively new. Pixar had only produced three shorts by that time and they tended to be extremely simple. And, such projects took years and were still created using massive mainframe computers--as PCs were not fast enough or complex enough to do this sort of work. And, most importantly, rendering software had to be created by anyone wanting to do such work. It was a very primitive time for the most primitive sort of CGI, this short film is an animation that was used to demonstrate the new physics of the polygon animation.
