Psychotherapist and UoFT assistant professor Anderson Todd is no stranger to creeping feelings of despair. From the disappearing wildlife in his hometown Owen Sound to seeing news stories about melting ice sheets and decades-long droughts, there is no end to the parade of ominous news. Little wonder then, that the worried comments from Anderson’s clients and students about the future only increase and increase. And like many others, he finds it difficult to share this crushing dread with others without turning them away. But our short film isn’t just about anguish. It’s also about what we do now. No, our individual actions may not be able to change the course of feedback loops or reverse fossil fuel extraction. But that doesn’t mean we can’t be contributing a community, we can’t be learning useful skills, and we can’t be connecting with other people and making a difference in their lives, now or later.

Early experimental claymation. This is the first and longer version of the film, which was later re-created from scratch. Created 1966, released 2022. "I was 13 and had seen the amazing "abstract jazz claymation: short, CLAY, OR THE ORIGIN OF THE SPECIES by Eliot Noyes. I was totally copying that film when I made this. I entered this film in a local high school film festival, won first place, and got the attention of Larry Herndon of Keitz and Herndon, a Dallas animation company. Herndon set me up with a 35mm camera and professional lights, and had me reshoot the claymation. By this time, I had forgotten about Nosey' film and that I had simply imitated it. So, for the 35mm second version, I THOUGHT I was just imitating myself. That second WAD was entered (by the National Information Agency, a branch of the CIA) in foreign amateur film festivals all over the world and won yet more awards."
