A very funny and suggestive animation made in Flash. Soundtrack by John Bungle and Chris Casady. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Chris Casady [California·USA 1952] He learned to animate by accident. He was hired to rotoscope explosions on large paper, so he spent hours and hours behind a black curtain tracing mattes around explosions frame by frame. After seeing dozens of explosions this way, he understood how to animate them. He grew into an effects animator, added water, lightning, fire, shadows and bubbles to his repertoire and worked freelance on the fringes of Hollywood during the 80's and 90's. He worked on the first 3 Star Wars films, also Airplane!, TRON, Beetle Juice, Highlander, among many others. He also made commercials for cigarettes, raisins and Michael Jackson, and directed a music video for the Beastie Boys. Now he makes illustrations for the National Park Service. To him, animation is for fun only. · view film |
