»Future Animation«
Works by Tommy Palotta and Bob Sabiston

ZKM's film and video program, Cinema on Wednesdays, dedicates itself to the short films of Tommy Palotta and Bob Sabiston, who became famous as the creative forces behind »Waking Life«, setting new standards for film animation. Their trademark is the »Rotoscoping Software«, an invention of Bob Sabiston through which a digital video can be changed picture for picture, thus wholly becoming animation. This software allows for drawing directly over the film material. The unique appearance vacillates between animation and reality, a »shimmering impressionism with the flair of pop-cartoons« (Filmmaker Magazine).
