This is the 5 Second Day short I produced for 2023. It is directed by the almost good, semi-legendary director Jakov Ozpak, who came out of retirement just for this special occasion. He lost his eyesight and sanity some years ago, but a few people think he's still got it! vimeo link: https://vimeo.com/814063908
84 years ago this very day, Kiff and Barry premiered in theaters as part of the Table-Tunes series of shorts. Now you can see them again today at 8pm on Kiff on the Disney Channel and Mar 11 on Disney+. Force your friends to watch so that maybe I can still have money.
I did this a long while ago, and didn’t like it. I was playing around with stuff I wasn’t used to. Experimenting with a bunch of things, and couldn’t really decide what I was going to do. I wasn’t ever going to post it. But I changed my mind.
Kind of an experiment. Wanted to make it look sort of like an old TV commercial. Sort of a mix of the Fleischer and Famous Studios design, but even a bit more modern. Then played around in After Effects a bit.
