Bill Plympton is the hardest working animator in the world today. No disrespect to any other hard-working animators out there, but it’s absolutely true about Plympton. He’s constantly working on several working short films and features at the same time. Plus, he flies all over the world to film festivals and events to promote his work, which you can read all about on the new blog Scribble Junkies that Plympton produces with his friend Patrick Smith.
And now Bill Plympton has taken on the monumental task of self-distributing his latest feature film Idiots & Angels, which is about a selfish man who magically grows wings one day that instantly make him a target for other people’s selfish desires to abuse his gift for their own gain.

The extreme and intensely wonderful Diy case for making your narrative film is embodied by Zachary Oberzan and his incredible "Flooding With Love for the Kid."
On the documentary end of the spectrum, I’d like to introduce you to Alexia Anastasio. Don’t let that image on her home page fool you. Alexia is as animated (no pun intended) and upbeat as could be and devoted to making art. She considers acting and film just two of her mediums.

The godfather of gore himself, Mr. Herschell Gordon Lewis, will be making a rare appearance in front of the camera in the upcoming horror/comedy 7 Deadly Sins: Inside the Ecomm Cult, and if you want to see it before everyone else, you'd better buy a ticket for Monster-Mania and get your ass to Cherry Hill, NJ this weekend!
7 Deadly Sins: Inside the Ecomm Cult is a mockumentary about a young girl who's brainwashed into joining a cult in Southern California. Lewis stars as the hard-boiled detective hired to track her down. "I like the whole idea of mockumentary," said Lewis in a press release. "With that kind of thing, you want the audience to have the same sense of humor you do."
The film also stars Smokey Miles a.k.a. Count Smokula as Doctor Smoke, Alexia Anastasio as Amy, Mo Whelan as The Infomercial Lady and Kevin Sean Michaels...
