Pretty unique art style! Also love how people were turned into a different animal. Have great respect for artists and animators. Officially subscribed to this Substack.

Wow. I went to Sean Buckelew's substack and read the entire story. Holy smokes. GREAT JOB covering his story. As an independent filmmaker I can feel his pain and joy. I wish we heard more stories like that. You folks ROCK for sharing that. And Sean if your reading this, GREAT JOB.

Wow, so awesome! Thanks a ton. Sean reached out in the leadup to Drone's release and we were blown away by the film and the story behind it. We absolutely had to cover it. It's rare to see a current indie animator go into such fine detail about their process, and Sean's article could help a lot of people. And what a film. Really appreciate this comment!

Lest we forget Ralph Bakshi too used rotoscoping on his films (eg. Lord of the Rings, Wizards and my favorite American Pop).
