Stephen X. Arthur (SXA)

Experimental Animation & Visionary Film. The short films of Stephen X. Arthur are posted here for posterity. 

(Vancouver 1969-2004) Stephen X. Arthur started making award-winning animated films at age 14 and continued to make them while studying biology at UBC. Then he turned to experimental live-action films, followed by graduate studies in film production at USC in Los Angeles. This led to ten years of authoring feature-length screenplays while making a living as a technical writer. Finally -- after a third major detour as a neuroscience graduate student at UBC -- he returned to his roots as a self-taught experimental animator, this time on the computer. 

The most notable animated fine-art film: "Transfigured" (NFB) - featured in "The Animation Bible!" 2008, Maureen Furniss.
