We posted about Martin Sokol‘s film for the TIFF 2010 Preview series, but I thought it was high time that we posted this little gem of a graduate film. Martin’s a recent graduate of Sheridan College with a bright future ahead of him if he could just tell me more about this film – I bugged him for more info for months on end when we were working together at House of Cool in Toronto. He kept ‘forgetting’, but I think he’s just shy.
At any rate – enjoy!

Warren Leonhardt spent too much time watching tv, reading comics, or doodling in his math textbooks to really pay attention, but he thinks he was raised the Kootenays of British Columbia by two grownups and a sister. After realizing that cartoons and animated films don’t make themselves but were actually made by people, he decided to become one of those people. Over time he’s managed to fool companies like House of Cool, Disney Canada, Spümcø, Sony Pictures Animation, Blue Sky Studios and Corus into actually paying him money to draw funny pictures and generally goof around as a storyboard artist for animated features and television. He currently lives in Collingwood, Ontario, Canada with his long-suffering wife and toddler. In between drawing till his hand falls off and fending off the wildlife invading his property, he interviews people more interesting than himself for CAR.CA.
