the inherit babadook

Inherit vice. Confusing but entertaining. Watch again for technique, acting, use of narration, dialogue. groovy.

The babadook. not scary. Except for the mom’s expression at the end of the film and the boy acting possessed in the car. The movie felt like the shining meets jumanji meets the main character in a clockwork orange as a boy. the monster reminded me of Slash.
Nice art direction on that children’s book.

red brick, narrow lanes

Tuesday.
Ran 30 minutes on upper Banyeo around Baejan-ro. Near the market I found red brick apartments lining narrow back streets and alleys. They resembled Victorian era working class housing in East London. Similar, perhaps, to Jack the Ripper’s old stomping grounds.
Started listening to the audiobook of The Man In The High Castle on youtube.

eldo dude

output_PSLPWm

one of the pixel cartoons i made as a logo for a line of sandwiches from eldorado market.

pixel animation:
8-bit music.
a pixel bird circles high in the blue sky. we crane down to find eldo dude shirtless, climbing up the rock face of the Bastille. his tummy grumbles. he keeps climbing. his tummy grumbles again. he says “dude, i’m hungry”
he jumps off the rock face, into the forest, he bounces off a ponderosa, a bear, a cougar, then runs down a trail, passing hikers and mtn. bikers. he reaches eldorado corner market, which is painted yellow and purple. a flag flies high. he jumps on it. he brings it down. fireworks flare up over bear peak. he goes into the market.
different pixel sandwiches appear over the mountains.

the purple and yellow corner market was demolished in 2012.
