More animation today: “Jazzed” by Anton Setola. His name might let you think he is some kind of Mafia-type, but apparently he’s just a regular guy from Flanders, like me. What a pity.
Also a pity: I wasn’t able to find the complete film because it is still touring the festivals. Later, perhaps? I did find an interview with Setola which again starts in French but that didn’t seem to work out, so they continued in English. The interview has a lot of little excerpts from the film, so you’ll get a pretty good idea what it looks like. It looks great, by the way. In my humble opinion.
Setola also has a blog where you can find some more of his work and sketches. Check it out at antonsetola.blogspot.com/. The pictures above are either taken from the film, or are preliminary sketches.
(There is a small part where he tries to speak French again. He soon gives up on that, don’t worry. (I must admit I wouldn’t do much better in French… :) ) The only thing being said there is that he didn’t work on paper, everything was done digitally with a program called DigiPaint.)

Thanks for this post, I had not come across 'Jazzed' before. I'm an animator and have my own blog where I talk about interesting things, and I posted about this after I saw it here. I plugged you, though, no worries! Here it is:http://www.filmandscissors.com/blog/?p=474
I've subscribed to your blog, I think you have excellent taste.
Keep it up!

I visited your blog. The video on the film you're making looks interesting. (check it out, people:http://www.indiegogo.com/plainface?a=14757&i=... ). And the e4c storefront project seems like such a good idea... wonder how well it would translate to other media...
Thanks for your comment. Hope to hear from you in the future...
