Bill Plympton's HAIR HIGH

November 26, 2002 9:16 AM

Watch Bill Plympton create his new animation Hair High right before your eyes! I left the ani-cam on yesterday and the only conclusion I came to was that it takes a really, really, really long time to draw animations.

So, he's drawing a chicken, eh? Might it be a wonderchicken?

I, for one, am VERY impressed at the choice between Java and non-java viewing methods for the webcam.

That, and Plympton did awesome stuff for Liquid Television back in the day.

oh man, that webcam totally reminds me of this one can of paint i had. after opening it and applying the paint to the surface of the object i was painting i noticed that the paint started to dry. it was truly fantastic...

but in all seriousness, this is a fun site. It's great to see stuff like this. though i think bill got this idea from his touring buddy don who's been documenting his own upcoming feature too.

No offence, Mr. Plympton, but some Flash could save you some time. Tho that is some darn assured pencil work! Fascinating link, thanks!

Nice spot Stan. I seem to be in the wrong time zone for actual-time viewing, but I may be junk and peeing on it doesn't seem to help.

Good post.
