Back in the day....P-funk illustrator and frequent collaborator Overton Loyd,introduced me to Island Records creative director, Judy Troilo,and she convinced me to produce some animation to be included into a music video for Bootsy Collin's new single "Disciples Of Funk" on the "JungleBassKlub" album,in 1990.

There was no budget left for the animation,....so "FUNK" would have to be the only "reward".
I saw some possibility in this,it is Bootsy Collins!!!!

Overton styled the whole production on the storyboards,and I did layouts and animated several scenes of animation myself,and Judy co-ordinated some art interns at the label on the east coast,(I was in LA) to clean-up my animation and paint it,old-school style,on plastic cels!
It was a funky way to produce a video,...but it's a great fun memory to look back on.

Brice productions....20 years strong!!!! "Animation for the people" http://www.myspace.com/jerrybrice
