Night Fishing selected for Hiroshima Animation Festival

I’m deeply honored that my film “Night Fishing with Cormorants” has been selected to show in competition in the Hiroshima 2010 International Animation Festival, August 10, 2010. Acceptance to any festival is a great thrill, but it is really an extraordinary opportunity to show this film in Japan, and to be part of this illustrious competition.

adding Hair to my tops in Cinema4D, and got way way more than I bargained for in terms of sheer volume — but still a fun render, and provokes lots of ideas for the next version.
