"The Age Of Genius"


This is a condensed version of my thesis film. In the film print there are sections of text in both the beginning and end of the film, which unfortunately are not legible in this small resolution; essentially what the text says is that the film is inspired by the life and work of Bruno Schulz, and gives details about his murder by an SS officer in 1942. (If you have not read Bruno's writings, look for "The Street of Crocodiles",aka "The Cinnamon Shops", and "Sanatorium Under the Sign of the Hourglass". They are marvelous.)
The animation was shot under a 35mm Oxberry camera, drawn using charcoal and pastels on paper. I only used cells for the mattes in the lighting effects- everything else is paper with the negative space cut out (basically like cells, but not cells).

The film print is copyright The University of Southern California. The animation and artwork are copyright Joshua E. Harrell. The Music is copyright Lucas A. Marquardt.
