Sensations At Coney Island
September 24, 2009
The 2009 Coney Island Film Festival will feature my latest animation ‘Sensations of the Season’.
This is really exciting as the theme of this animation is based around a freak show … so to be shown at Coney Island (which is the last place in the USA where you can experience the thrill of a traditional ten-in-one circus sideshow) makes it a real hoot.
If you don’t already know .. ‘Sensations of the Season’ is an animated accompliment I made for the bizarre music of Onethirtyeight.
We are featured on there press release HERE.
Please all come along and see ‘Sensations of the Season’ at it’s second public showing in the world!
