Run Wrake - Rabbit (30 second clip)
Run Wrake has made a number of music videos and promotional spots. This short film, Rabbit, was recently screened at the Telluride Film Festival and it is absolutely wonderful. Here's Run's introcution from his site, www.runwrake.com: "After a period of Luddite tendencies, I finally succumbed to the march of the Mac in 1998, and since then have worked mainly with Photoshop processed artwork, animated in After Effects.
'Rabbit' was made in this way, using scanned 1950s educational stickers, and weaving a story from the finite imagery available. It marks a move towards a more traditionally narrative structure, which I found to be a liberation rather than the hindrance it had seemed in the past, and has opened the door to a world of possibilities for the future."
