Bruce Bickford Workshop

The result of a workshop at Calarts in January 2007 with Bruce Bickford, animator for many of Frank Zappa's films, including "Baby Snakes." The animation was shot in a 'marathon' style over 36 hours, ith each animator or group of animators having 4 hours to work, and without seeing any of the animation before them. The music was recorded by the crew. The film was completed on Mr. Bickford's birthday.

Thanks for posting this. I put together Bruce's visiting artist seminar at Cal Arts and the students had a great time with him. It was loads of fun.
