Don Hertzfeldt (born August 1, 1976) is a two-time Academy Award nominated animator, artist, writer, and independent filmmaker. He is the creator of many animated films, including It's Such a Beautiful Day, World of Tomorrow, The Meaning of Life, and Rejected. His films have received over 250 awards and have been presented around the world.[1] Seven of his films have competed at the Sundance Film Festival, a festival record.[2] He is also the only filmmaker to have won the Sundance Film Festival's Grand Jury Prize for Short Film twice.
Hertzfeldt's short films have been described as "some of the most influential animation ever created,"[3] and "some of the most vital and expressive animation of the millennium."[4]
In his book The World History of Animation, author Stephen Cavalier writes, "Hertzfeldt is either a unique phenomenon or perhaps an example of a new way forward for individual animators surviving independently on their own terms… he attracts the kind of fanatical support from the student and alternative crowds usually associated with indie rock bands." [5]
In 2012, Hertzfeldt combined his short film trilogy about a man named Bill (Everything Will Be OK, I Am So Proud of You, and It's Such a Beautiful Day), into a seamless new feature film, It's Such a Beautiful Day, which had a limited theatrical release in autumn 2012. The L.A. Film Critics Association named it runner-up for Best Animated Feature Film of 2012 and the annual Indiewire critics poll ranked Hertzfeldt the 9th Best Film Director of 2012.[6] The A.V. Club film critics ranked It's Such a Beautiful Day # 8 on their list of the Best Films of 2012.[7] After a limited UK release the following year, the film was ranked # 3 on Time Out London's list of the 10 Best Films of 2013 and # 4 on The London Film Review's list of the same. In 2014, Time Out New York ranked It's Such a Beautiful Day # 16 on its list of the "100 Best Animated Movies Ever Made,"[8] and in 2016, The Film Stage critics ranked the film # 1 on their list of the "Best Animated Films of the 21st Century (So Far)." [9]
In 2016, Rolling Stone ranked World of Tomorrow # 10 on its list of the "Greatest Animated Movies Ever."[10]
Hertzfeldt primarily supports his work through self-distribution, such as ticket sales from theatrical tours, DVDs, and television broadcasts. He has refused all advertising work.[11]
Hertzfeldt lives in Austin, Texas. He spent many years in Santa Barbara, California after attending college there. He has kept a continuous blog on his website since 1999.

Early life[edit]
Hertzfeldt was born on August 1, 1976 in Alameda County, California, the son of an airline pilot and a county library clerk.[12][13] Some publications have his place of birth as Fremont, California while others name the smaller Castro Valley, California.[12][14] He is of half Swedish descent.[15] Hertzfeldt attended Mission San Jose High School in Fremont.[14] In his childhood, Hertzfeldt drew homemade comic books and at the age of 15, he began to teach himself animation with a VHS video camera.[13] Two of Hertzfeldt's teenage VHS cartoons can be seen on the "Bitter Films: Volume 1" DVD collection.
While at film school, Hertzfeldt was drawn to animation as it was a less expensive form to work in. He could not afford to buy the numerous rolls of 16 mm film required to shoot live action. He has stated, "I think I've always approached animation from a strange angle, a bit like a regular filmmaker who just happens to animate. Editing, writing, sound—those are the things that usually come first in my head. Animation is often just the busy work I need to get through to connect the dots and tell the story." [16]
Hertzfeldt has never held a job other than creating his animated films.[17] His earliest teenage video animations found film festival exposure, and in film school at the University of California, Santa Barbara he was able to find international distribution for each of his 16mm student films. He is a 1998 graduate[18] with a B.A. in Film Studies.[19]
Hertzfeldt's work commonly features hand-drawn stick figures, in stories of black humor, surrealism, and tragicomedy. Some films contain existential and philosophical themes while others are more straightforwardly slapstick and absurdist. His animation is created traditionally with pen and paper, often with minimal digital aid. Hertzfeldt uses antique 16 mm or 35 mm–film cameras to photograph his drawings and often employs old-fashioned special effect techniques such as multiple exposures, in-camera mattes, and experimental photography. While some of these techniques are as established as an occasional stop-motion animation sequence or a universe of moving stars created by back-lit pin holes, other effects are new innovations on classical methods, as seen with the in-camera compositing of multiple, split-screen windows of action in the Everything Will Be OK films.[20][21][22]
Since 1999, Hertzfeldt had photographed all his films on a 35mm Richardson animation camera stand, believed to be the same camera that photographed many of the Peanuts cartoons in the 1960s and 1970s.[23] Built in the late 1940s, it is reportedly one of the last remaining functioning cameras of its kind left in the world, and Hertzfeldt finds it to be a crucial element in the creation of his films and their unique visuals.[24]
In 2015, Hertzfeldt released his first digitally animated short film, World of Tomorrow, which was created at the same time as another digital piece, an animated guest appearance on The Simpsons. Both pieces were still hand-drawn by Hertzfeldt, but on a Cintiq tablet instead of paper.
Discussing film and digital technology with The New York Times in 2008, Hertzfeldt noted:
I don't know why these things are always framed as a big dumb cage match: Hand-drawn versus computers, film versus digital. We have over 100 years now of amazing film technology to play with, I don't understand why any artists would want to throw any of their tools out of the box. Many people assume that because I shoot on film and animate on paper I must be doing things the hard way, when in fact my last four movies would have been visually impossible to produce digitally. The only thing that matters is what actually winds up on the big screen, not how you got it there. You could make a cartoon in crayons about a red square that falls in unrequited love with a blue circle, and there wouldn't be a dry eye in the house if you know how to tell a story.[25]
It's not unusual for Hertzfeldt to write, direct, produce, animate, photograph, edit, perform voices, record and mix sound, and/or compose music for one of his films, at times requiring years to complete a single short. The animation for one of his films may often require tens of thousands of drawings.
Hertzfeldt frequently scores his pictures with classical music and opera. The music of Tchaikovsky, Bizet, Smetana, Beethoven, Richard Strauss, and Wagner have all appeared in his films. On occasion, Hertzfeldt has also scored portions of his films himself, with a guitar or keyboard.
Popularity and influence[edit]
Hertzfeldt's early short films have been credited with being a prominent influence on surrealism and absurdism in animation in the 2000s, as well as influencing Adult Swim's animated comedy.[26] In 2008, Comedy Central noted his work as having "influenced an entire generation of filmmakers."[27]
In 2012, Hertzfeldt was ranked #16 in an animation industry and historian survey of the "Top 100 Most Influential People in Animation."[28]
Other films, such as The Meaning of Life, Everything Will Be OK, and I Am So Proud of You, expanded upon his signature dark humor to explore themes of existentialism and philosophy. Critics have favorably compared these shorts to the work of Stanley Kubrick[29] and David Lynch.[30]
Hertzfeldt's early films were regularly found in film festivals around the world, occasional touring animation programs like Spike and Mike's Festival of Animation and the Animation Show, and on home video and DVD collections. The cartoons were also featured occasionally on television: MTV, Bravo, Via X, Sundance Channel, IFC, Showtime, and the Cartoon Network being a few channels that have carried his work internationally.
The popularity of Hertzfeldt's shorts led to many Internet bootlegs, bringing his work to an audience of millions. Though he was unhappy with the frequent poor quality these online versions offered in the 1990s and 2000s (as well as the frequent re-editing of them), he said he was not interested in harassing fans. On his website in 2007, Hertzfeldt wrote that movies are not made to be seen on the Internet: "If you've only seen a film downgraded on the Internet or some strange miniature device, in many ways you haven't really seen it yet. YouTube is great for home videos of your cat falling off the roof, but it is not really the proper setting for "cinema"… Movies are meant to be seen in the dark, hopefully with an audience, and with your undivided attention; this last one is non-negotiable."[11]
In recent years, Hertzfeldt has released free official versions of The Meaning of Life and Everything will be OK online in HD. Wisdom Teeth also debuted online in HD after being acquired by Showtime, and It's Such a Beautiful Day, the feature film, was later the first movie to ever be released on-demand on Vimeo, in March 2013. World of Tomorrow followed suit on Vimeo in March 2015.
Hertzfeldt prefers not to sell his animation artwork. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, his website Bitter Films annually auctioned off artwork instead to raise thousands of dollars for local Santa Barbara charities. Other original drawings have been occasionally given away through the Bitter Films online store through special promotions. Because Hertzfeldt also rarely does signings, his artwork is rare for animation collectors and fans to own.
Student films, 1995–1998[edit]
Hertzfeldt made four 16mm animated student films while studying film at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
Ah, L'Amour and Genre were produced at the ages of 18 and 19. Ah, L'Amour would win the HBO Comedy Arts Festival Grand Prize for "World's Funniest Cartoon".[31]
His first dialogue short, Lily and Jim, was released in 1997, and tells the story of a disastrous blind date. Its partially improvised vocal performances helped the short win twenty five awards, including the Grand Prize at the New Orleans Film Festival.[32]
His final student cartoon, Billy's Balloon, is about an inexplicable attack on small children by malevolent balloons. It was nominated for the Short Film Palme d'Or at the 1999 Cannes Film Festival, and won the Grand Jury Award at the 1999 Slamdance Film Festival. In total, it won thirty three awards.[33]
The popularity of each student short at film and animation festivals—and eventually around the world from screening on MTV and other networks—helped fund the next one, and eventually financed the production of his first film after college.
Independent animation, 2000–2015[edit]
Soon after graduating from film school, Hertzfeldt purchased his own 35mm rostrum camera, and made his next animated short, Rejected. Released in theaters in 2000, the short won dozens of awards, was nominated for an Oscar, and became a cult classic that is frequently quoted and referenced in pop culture.[34] Fans of the cartoon have been known to wear costumes, re-enact their favorite scenes in fan films, and some have had tattoos made of their favorite characters.[35] Public screenings of the short sometimes become a "Rocky Horror Picture Show-esque feedback loop" of fans reciting favorite lines back at the screen.[36] The short's enduring popularity has led it to be described as "this generation's A Hard Day's Night".[37]
The film presents itself as a reel of rejected commercial work by a fictional version of Don Hertzfeldt. The commissioned animated vignettes grow more and more abstract and inappropriate as the animator suffers a mental breakdown, until they literally fall apart.
Although the film is of course fictional and Hertzfeldt has never done advertising work, he received many offers to do television commercials after Billy's Balloon drew international attention. In appearances Hertzfeldt has often told the humorous story of how he was tempted to produce the worst possible cartoons he could come up with for the companies, make off with their money, and see if they would actually make it to air. Eventually this became the germ for Rejected's theme of a collection of cartoons so bad they were rejected by advertising agencies, leading to their creator's breakdown.
The Animation Show[edit]
In 2003, Hertzfeldt created The Animation Show with Beavis and Butt-head creator Mike Judge. It was a biennial North American touring festival that brought independent animated short films to more movie theaters than any distributor in history. The programs were personally curated by Hertzfeldt and Judge. A second Animation Show edition toured throughout 2005, featuring Hertzfeldt's short film The Meaning of Life and new films by animators like Peter Cornwell and Georges Schwizgebel. The third season of The Animation Show began its nationwide release in January 2007, featuring new work by animators Joanna Quinn and Bill Plympton, as well as Hertzfeldt's own Everything Will Be OK.
A stated goal of The Animation Show was to regularly "free the work of these independent artists from the dungeons of Internet exhibition," and bring them into proper movie theaters where most of the short films were meant to be seen. The Animation Show meanwhile launched a supplemental DVD series of animated short films, with content that often varies from the annual theatrical programs. These DVDs were distributed by MTV.
In a March 2008 entry in his blog, Hertzfeldt announced he had decided to leave The Animation Show, after having programmed (and contributing films to) three tours. A fourth season of the program was released in theaters in summer 2008, with no involvement from him.[38]
The Meaning of Life[edit]
Almost four years in the making, Hertzfeldt's twelve-minute The Meaning of Life premiered at the 2005 Sundance Film Festival and toured film and animation festivals in 2005–2006. Though its abstract nature puzzled some critics, it received mostly positive reviews. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution called the film "the closest thing on film yet to Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey."[39]
In the film, the evolution of the human race is traced from prehistory (mankind as blob forms), through today (mankind as teeming crowds of selfish, fighting, or lost individuals), to hundreds of millions of years into the future as our species evolves into countless new forms; all of them still behaving the same way. The film concludes in the extreme future, with two creatures (apparently an adult and child subspecies of future human), having a conversation about the meaning of life on a colorful shore.
In 2009, Hertzfeldt noted, "I don't often make the same sort of movie twice in a row. It's always been whatever's next in my head. From a commercial standpoint I guess I've made some pretty inscrutable decisions, like following up 'Rejected' with a sprawling abstract film about human evolution, but it's really just been whichever ideas won't go away at the time. There's always a lot of new things I'd like to try." [40]
Everything will be OK, I Am So Proud of You, and It's Such a Beautiful Day[edit]
Everything Will Be OK was released in 2006 and became Hertzfeldt's most critically successful piece to date, receiving his strongest reviews. The film was described as "probably the best work he's done in his very incredible and consistently amazing young career."[41]
The 17-minute animated short was based on the character, Bill, from his webcomic "Temporary Anesthetics".[42] The Boston Globe called the film a "masterpiece" with the Boston Phoenix declaring Hertzfeldt a "genius."[43] The short film was a cover story on the Chicago Reader, receiving four stars from critic J.R. Jones. Variety film critic Robert Koehler named Everything Will Be OK one of the Best Films of 2007.[44]
Everything will be OK is the first chapter of a three-part story about Bill, a young man whose daily routines, perceptions, and dreams are illustrated onscreen through multiple split-screen windows. Bill's seemingly mundane life, narrated in humorous and dramatic anecdotes, gradually grows dark as we learn he may be suffering from a possibly fatal mental disorder.
Scenes throughout the trilogy are often divided into multiple windows of action on the screen at once, against a background of pure black. Animated still photographs are also incorporated inside certain windows, as well as a handful of the colorful special effects and experimental film techniques that Hertzfeldt first utilized in The Meaning of Life. Like many of Hertzfeldt's films, most of the trilogy's special effects were captured in-camera.
Everything Will Be OK won the Grand Jury Prize for Short Filmmaking at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival, the Lawrence Kasdan Award for Best Narrative Film at the Ann Arbor Film Festival, the Grand Prize at the London Animation Festival, and 34 other awards.
I Am So Proud of You, the second chapter in the story, was released in autumn 2008. Upon its release, Hertzfeldt traveled with I Am So Proud of You and a selection of his other films to 22 cities on a sold-out American tour (with two stops in the UK and three in Canada). '"An Evening with Don Hertzfeldt" presented a 35mm selection of his work followed by an onstage interview and audience chat with him.[45] I Am So Proud of You also played at film festivals throughout 2009 and won 27 awards.[46]
The third and final chapter, It's Such a Beautiful Day, premiered at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival. Hertzfeldt traveled with It's Such a Beautiful Day in 2011 and 2012 on another North American theatrical tour to 30 cities.
Of the trilogy, Steven Pate of The Chicagoist wrote, "There is a moment in each installment of Don Hertzfeldt's masterful trilogy of animated shorts where you feel something in your chest. It's an unmistakably cardiac event, the kind that great art can elicit when something profound and undeniably true is conveyed about the human condition. That's when you say to yourself: are stick figures supposed to make me feel this way? In the hands of a master, yes. And Hertzfeldt is to stick figures what Franz Liszt was to planks of ebony and ivory and what Ted Williams was to a stick of white ash: someone so transcendentally expert that to describe what they do in literal terms is borderline demeaning." [47]
Wisdom Teeth[edit]
In October 2009, Hertzfeldt premiered Wisdom Teeth, an unannounced, new five-minute cartoon at the "Evening with Don Hertzfeldt" screening at the Ottawa Animation Festival. It later screened at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2010 and the Fantasia Film Festival in Montreal, where it was awarded a Special Jury Mention.[38] In 2010, it appeared as part of a series on the Showtime Network called "Short Stories".
It's Such a Beautiful Day, the feature film[edit]
In 2012, Hertzfeldt edited together the three chapters of his short film trilogy to create a seamless new feature film of the story. His first feature film, the movie shares the same title as the third chapter of the story, It's Such a Beautiful Day, and went into limited release in movie theaters during autumn 2012.
The film was subsequently released on DVD, as well as on-demand in HD on Vimeo, iTunes, and Netflix.
It's Such a Beautiful Day was very well received by film critics. The Los Angeles Film Critics Association named it their runner-up for Best Animated Feature Film of the year, behind Frankenweenie. Indiewire ranked Hertzfeldt the 9th best Film Director of the Year in its annual poll (tied with Wes Anderson), and The A.V. Club film critics ranked the film # 8 on their list of the Best Films of 2012.[7] Slate Magazine named "It's Such a Beautiful Day" their pick for Best Animated Feature Film of 2012.
In the United Kingdom, the film was ranked # 3 on Time Out London's list of the 10 Best Films of 2013, and # 4 on The London Film Review's list of the same.
In 2014, Time Out New York ranked It's Such a Beautiful Day # 16 on their list of the "100 Best Animated Movies Ever Made." Critic Tom Huddleston described it as "one of the great outsider artworks of the modern era, at once sympathetic and shocking, beautiful and horrifying, angry and hilarious, uplifting and almost unbearably sad." [8]
The Simpsons[edit]
In 2014, Hertzfeldt wrote, animated, and directed a surreal and futuristic two-minute "couch gag" for the premiere episode of the 26th season of The Simpsons. It was the longest opening gag in the show's history and was described by Spin Magazine as "mind-melting," and "two of the strangest minutes of television ever to air on a major network during prime time."[48][49][50]
The sequence depicts Homer accidentally using a time-traveling remote control that regresses him to his original 1987 character model, then propels him into a distant future incarnation of the show called The Sampsans where he and his family have evolved into grotesque, mindless, catchphrase-spouting creatures. Future Homer sadly remembers past futuristic episodes, in which he still had an emotional connection with Marge and the children. Simpsons producer Al Jean called it "crazier than we thought," and "the most insane one we've ever done."[51]
World of Tomorrow[edit]
In January 2015, Hertzfeldt's first digitally-animated short film, World of Tomorrow, premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and won the Grand Jury Prize, his second. Illustrator Julia Pott performs the voice of the short's lead character, opposite Hertzfeldt's then-four-year-old niece, who was recorded while drawing and playing. Her spontaneous, natural vocal reactions and questions were then edited into the story to create her character.
Critics were universally positive in their reviews, describing the science fiction film as "one of the most satisfying shorts since Chris Marker's landmark 1962 La Jetee and almost certain to be the highlight of this year's Sundance, full stop,"[52] "dazzling, enthralling"[53] and "astonishing."[54]
The film next won Best Animated Short at the SXSW Film Festival. Indiewire called the short film "one of the best films of 2015," and The Dissolve named it "one of the finest achievements in sci-fi in recent memory." The A.V. Club described the film as "visionary" and "possibly the best film of 2015,"[55] in spite of its short running time. The Austin Film Critics Association gave Hertzfeldt a Special Honorary Award in recognition of the film.
World of Tomorrow was released on-demand on Vimeo in March 2015, simultaneous with its run in film festivals.
At the end of its film festival run, the film won over 40 awards. World of Tomorrow won two Crystal Awards from the Annecy Animation Festival, a Special Jury Award, and the Audience Award. The film also won two awards from the Ottawa International Animation Festival, Best Script and the Audience Award.
In 2016, World of Tomorrow won the animation industry's Annie Award for Best Animated Short Film.
In 2016, World of Tomorrow was nominated for the Academy Award for Animated Short Film at the 88th Academy Awards, Hertzfeldt's second career nomination.
In 2016, Rolling Stone ranked World of Tomorrow # 10 on its list of the "Greatest Animated Movies Ever."[10]
Other work[edit]
In December 2013, Hertzfeldt released a graphic novel, The End of the World, through independent publisher Antibookclub. The 216 page book was described in his blog as containing many years of leftover film ideas, reshaped into an experimental new story. "If the films were albums, I guess these would be the B-sides," he wrote.
In 2013, Hertzfeldt animated a 30-second piece called "Day Sleeper" for the National Film Board of Canada. It was created using their iPad app, a tribute to experimental animator Norman McLaren.
Awards and honors[edit]
Hertzfeldt has had more films play in competition at the Sundance Film Festival than any other filmmaker, with seven: Rejected, The Meaning of Life, Everything Will Be OK, I Am So Proud of You, Wisdom Teeth, It's Such a Beautiful Day, and World of Tomorrow. He returned to the Sundance Film Festival in 2013 to serve on the Short Film Awards Jury.
In 1999, at the age of 22, Hertzfeldt was nominated for the Short Film Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival for Billy's Balloon, where he was the youngest director in competition. The same year Billy's Balloon won the Slamdance Film Festival Grand Jury Award.
In 2000, at the age of 23, Hertzfeldt was nominated for the Academy Award for Animated Short Film for his fifth short film, Rejected. He lost to Michaël Dudok de Wit for Father and Daughter.
In 2001, Hertzfeldt was named by Filmmaker Magazine as one of the "Top 25 Filmmakers to Watch."
In 2002, Hertzfeldt joined the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences
In 2007, Hertzfeldt's Everything Will Be OK won the Grand Jury Award for Short Film at the Sundance Film Festival, a prize rarely given to an animated film.[56]
In 2007, according to the animation industry website Cartoon Brew, Everything Will Be OK advanced to the final round of voting as a contender for an Academy Award nomination for Best Animated Short, but did not make the ultimate list of five nominees.
In 2007, Hertzfeldt accepted an invitation from the George Eastman House's motion picture archives to indefinitely store and preserve the original film elements and camera negatives to his collected work.
In 2009, Rejected was the only short film named one of the "Films of the Decade" by Salon.com.[57] In 2010, it was noted as one of the five "most innovative animated films of the past ten years" by The Huffington Post.[58]
In April 2010, at the age of 33, Hertzfeldt received the San Francisco International Film Festival's "Persistence of Vision" Lifetime Achievement Award "for his unique contributions to film and animation," and "for challenging the boundaries of his craft."[59]
Hertzfeldt was the youngest director named in the "They Shoot Pictures, Don't They" list of "The 100 Important Animation Directors" of all time,[60]
In 2012, Hertzfeldt received the Ted M. Larson memorial award from the Fargo Film Festival, for his "contributions to film culture."[61]
In 2015, Hertzfeldt again won the Grand Jury Award for Short Film at the Sundance Film Festival, for World of Tomorrow.
In December 2015, Hertzfeldt received a special award from the Austin Film Critics Association, "in celebration of a career of remarkable short filmmaking and contributions to animation spanning two decades, with 2015's award-winning "World of Tomorrow" being recognized as his best work to date."
Hertzfeldt has been nominated for three Annie Awards for Best Animated Short Film. He lost for Rejected in 2001 and Everything Will Be OK in 2007 and won for World of Tomorrow in 2016.
In 2016, World of Tomorrow was nominated for the Academy Award for Animated Short Film at the 88th Academy Awards, Hertzfeldt's second career nomination.
DVD and Blu-ray releases[edit]
Hertzfeldt self-produces and self-distributes his own DVDs. With these sales, fans of his work are financing his next films, with no third parties in between.[43]
Bitter Films' first DVD release was a 2001 limited edition DVD "single" of the short Rejected. The DVD included a deleted scene, audio commentary, and a few hidden pages. It is now out of print.
Don Hertzfeldt Volume One: 1995–2005 was released in 2006, collecting the first 10 years of his work. All of the short films were remastered and restored in high definition from their original film negatives. The DVD was made available only to fans via the Bitter Films website, with the first 750 pre-orderers receiving an "exclusive mystery gift" (either a 35 mm–clipping from Rejected that was autographed by Don, or a unique drawing by Don on a post-it note).
This DVD marked the first time his student films such as Genre and Lily and Jim were made widely available to the public. Many of these works were only previously found on limited-release VHS collections of animated shorts, long out of print.
The special features for Don Hertzfeldt Volume One: 1995–2005 included a time-lapse documentary of the making of The Meaning of Life called "Watching Grass Grow", The Animation Show Trilogy cartoons, Lily and Jim deleted dialogues and outtakes, Rejected trivia captions, The Meaning of Life special effects audio commentary, an over 140-page "archive" section (of rare footage from Hertzfeldt's earliest cartoons, original pencil tests, deleted sequences, abandoned footage, and sketch to scene comparisons), Lily and Jim audio commentary, Rejected audio commentary, and a retrospective booklet, with liner notes by Hertzfeldt
In 2007, Everything Will Be OK was released as another DVD "single". Special features on this release included over a hundred pages of "archival" material (sketches, storyboards, deleted materials), and a hidden feature that played a narration-free version of the film.
I Am So Proud of You was released as a similar "single" in 2009. It featured a similar 148 page "archive" of production materials, as well as the hidden narration-free feature.
Don Hertzfeldt Volume 2: 2006–2011, a DVD collection of all work from 2006–2011 (including the feature film version of It's Such a Beautiful Day) was released in November 2012. Special features for the release included over 40 minutes of live Q&A material from the touring program, the cartoon Wisdom Teeth, a deleted scene from It's Such a Beautiful Day, and a 24-page booklet. Advance pre-order customers for the release also received a 35 mm–film strip clipped from a release print of It's Such a Beautiful Day, and other free gifts.
From July to August 2015, Don Hertzfeldt ran a Kickstarter campaign to publish his films It's Such a Beautiful Day and The World of Tomorrow for the first time on Blu-ray, to help finance future productions. The campaign raised over $215,000. With rising pledges he remastered additional short films The Meaning of Life, Rejected, Billy's Balloon, Wisdom Teeth, and Lily and Jim and added them to the Blu-ray as well. Also included was an interview, a surprise film, and the first preview of a future project. The disc run was limited, primarily available to Kickstarter supporters and fans who contacted Bitter Films directly.[62][63]
View on advertising[edit]
Hertzfeldt has been offered numerous lucrative advertising deals, including ad campaigns for Cingular Wireless and United Airlines, which he has declined. He has made various comments over the years about his distaste for corporate America and says he will never be involved with the advertising world.[11] He has said, "The goal isn't to try and make as much money as I possibly can; the goal is to try and make good movies."
In a March 2009 blog entry, Hertzfeldt compared filmmaking to his love of hiking and exploring new places: something he does just because he "enjoys doing it and will probably always enjoy doing it." He compared doing advertising to being paid to not go explore the woods, but to walk around someone's house eight hours a day wearing a sandwich board with a picture of a product on it. "Money's not the reason I take walks. It doesn't really factor into it. I take walks because I enjoy doing it. It's something I'd do if I was rich, and it's something I'd do if I were poor." [64]
In the commentary for Rejected on the Bitter Films Vol. 1 DVD, Hertzfeldt stated that "You never want to lie to your audience... you can trick them, you can disturb them, you can annoy them, but you can never lie to them. To me commercials are nothing but lies."[65]
Nevertheless, several international ad campaigns have borrowed heavily from his unique style and bear enough resemblance to Hertzfeldt's work as to be mistaken for it. The most well-known instance of this is a series of 2004–2009/2014–present television ads for Kellogg's Pop-Tarts, which use black and white stick figures, "squiggly" animation, surreal humor, and even an occasional crumpling paper effect, all very similar to Hertzfeldt's style. Despite all these similarities, Hertzfeldt was not involved in any way.[66] In Canada, the not-for-profit corporation Encorp has used a Hertzfeldt-like style of short animation clips on TV and the Internet to promote its "Don't Mess With Karma" campaign to encourage recycling.[67] One of the latest ad campaigns to use an art style similar to Hertzfeldt's is Krystal fast food restaurant to promote their Blitz Energy Drink.[68]

Assessing the impact of Brexit on emerging markets
The Prime Minister, David Cameron, has resigned with effect in October. In the meantime there will be a leadership contest before a new prime minister takes over. The British system does not require a general election in this case (although Parliament could decide to have one).
Under European treaties, countries that wish to leave the EU submit a notice to do so under Article 50. After that there is a two year period of negotiation on the terms of exit. If no agreement is reached the country leaves without an agreement, unless there is unanimous agreement amongst the remaining members to extend negotiations.
At present the "Leave" campaign has said it wants an extended period of negotiation before submitting its notice, so as not to get caught by the two year deadline. The conclusion for all this is that the UK is not leaving the EU in the immediate future. The actual leaving date may be closer to 2020. This is not certain however. For example premature action on immigration and free movement of labour by the UK could accelerate the process.
Although the UK is not likely to leave straight away, there is great uncertainty about the UK's economic relations with the rest of the world. Markets do not like uncertainty. Nor do businesses thinking of investing, or consumers thinking of making large purchases. So Schroders expects the UK to lose 0.9% of GDP by the end of 2017 and narrowly avoid recession.
The same effect on confidence will be evident in Europe, although to a lesser degree. Europe also has a number of political events coming up, including an election in Spain on Sunday, an important referendum on the constitution in Italy in the autumn and a French election next year. Political risk premia in general in Europe have increased as eurosceptic parties in various countries press for similar action to that of the UK.
The further away from Europe the fewer the effects. Schroders' economics team estimates that a Brexit is a marginal effect on global growth. However the risks of stagflation/deflation and weak growth have clearly increased.
Many emerging economies enjoy strong domestic demand
Countries in emerging markets trade predominately with each other and the US. The EU is not insignificant at about 20% but will not dominate trade or growth figures. In addition emerging countries are supported by generally strong domestic demand.
In terms of specific emerging countries we do not expect substantial economic effects. Clearly countries closely tied to the EU (or actually in the EU) will be worst affected. That means the CE3 of Hungary, Poland and the Czech Republic (3% of the MSCI Emerging Markets index and primarily via their trade links to Germany) and Turkey (1.5% of the MSCI Emerging Markets index). Such a small part of the index should not affect overall levels too much.
Global risks have risen
However, economic effects are only part of the story. Clearly global risk has gone up. Although the overall global GDP effect is small, the chances of a meaningful recovery from an extended period of lacklustre growth are reduced.
Given increased risk to the global growth outlook and increases in risk premia, markets may struggle to make headway from here. Despite more intra emerging market trade, emerging markets are still a key beneficiary of a pick-up in global activity. In addition, increased risk invariably acts to strengthen the dollar as a global safe haven, and that is usually bad for emerging markets. As usual, countries running large deficits such as Turkey and South Africa would be relatively more vulnerable if this were to happen.
On the other side, policymakers are unlikely to stand idly by and we could see further easing from central banks and fiscal authorities as well as a receding prospect of any rate rises from the Federal Reserve.
In summary, markets have had a large one off move already but any significant prolonged bounce from these levels is unlikely. However, looking further out, global growth and deflation fears have increased but emerging economies are likely to be relatively less impacted than developed markets due to strong trade with each other and domestic demand support. For the time being a defensive bias seems sensible.

1DX at 8000 ISO
Nov 28, 2013
Rented a 1DX for our Canadian Cowboys Association Rodeo Finals. I am the Association's official photog. Our indoor arena is not the brightest in the world but here is an example of 8000 ISO, 1/500 @ 2.8. I was pretty happy with the results (especially the focus) and the great thing is that it pretty much looks like my 3 other 1D's so my wife might not catch on when my own arrives some day! My only complaint is the focal point is not illuminated as is on my 1DIII. This makes tracking a little tricky.

This Lent, take a 40-day devotional journey with Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Click here to sign up.
26:1–28:26 Ezek. 26–28 is devoted to oracles against Israel's Phoenician neighbors, primarily Tyre (26:1–28:19), but also Sidon (28:20–26). The chapters are divided into subsections, each introduced with the phrase "the word of the Lord came to me" (26:1; 27:1; 28:1, 11, 20). There was occasional military conflict between Israel and the Phoenicians, but the Bible mentions Tyre and Sidon primarily as the source of pagan cults, especially the Baal worship of Jezebel, a Phoenician princess (Judg. 10:6; 1 Kin. 11:1, 5, 33; 16:31; 2 Kin. 23:13). The Phoenicians provided Israel with trade and expert labor (2 Sam. 5:11; 1 Kin. 5:1, 6; 7:13, 14; 9:11; 2 Chr. 2:3, 13, 14; Ezra 3:7; Neh. 13:16; Acts 12:20). Other prophetic books also include oracles against Tyre and Sidon (Is. 23; Joel 3:4–6; Amos 1:9, 10; Zech. 9:2–4).

DETROIT -- Brandon Inge isn't going to give Jim Leyland all of the credit for the Detroit Tigers' surprising rise to first place.
Just most of it.
Detroit's 7-4 win over Minnesota on Tuesday night, combined with Chicago's loss to Tampa Bay, lifted the Tigers into a first-place tie with the White Sox in the American League Central. The Tigers, who have won five straight, have not been in first place this late in the season since 1993.
"A lot of us were on that team that lost 119 games in 2003, and we fought hard to keep it to that many," Inge said. "We used to dream about getting to .500, and now we're looking at first place. This is an incredible turnaround."
Detroit has won five straight four times in Leyland's six-week tenure. No other Tigers manager since Sparky Anderson has had more than three such streaks in their entire tenure.
"Obviously, he's been blessed with great players," Inge joked.
Leyland, though, wasn't getting excited about moving into first.
"It means absolutely nothing," he said. "If we're in first place after the last game of the season, that will be big."
The Tigers are 4-0 at home against Minnesota this season, outscoring the Twins 40-5.
"I wish I could say this game was different, but we've seen too many of these," Minnesota manager Ron Gardenhire said. "We scored some runs, but we gave them right back. That's a backbreaker."
Nate Robertson (4-2) limited Minnesota to three runs and seven hits in five innings, improving to 3-0 in his last five starts.
"The offense picked Nate up, and the bullpen did a great job," Leyland said. "That's what is supposed to happen."
Todd Jones, the fourth Tigers reliever, got the last three outs for his 10th save in 11 tries.
Kyle Lohse (2-4) gave up five runs and six hits in 2 2/3 innings. He is 0-3 against the Tigers with a 13.14 ERA in three starts this year.
"We're just not pitching well out of the rotation," said Gardenhire, whose starters are 13-21 with a 6.64 ERA this season. "Our starters are struggling."
Lohse left the clubhouse abruptly after the game, to the displeasure of pitching coach Rick Anderson.
"The pitcher is supposed to stay in here, and he didn't," Anderson said. "It's frustrating to everyone the way we've been pitching. He was doing the right things in the first two innings, but all of a sudden, he gives up a couple hits and he starts overthrowing and getting away from that."
Minnesota took a 3-0 lead on Rondell White's RBI single in the second, and Torii Hunter's run-scoring single and Michael Cuddyer's sacrifice fly in the third.
However, Lohse couldn't get out of the bottom of the third. After singles by Craig Monroe and Curtis Granderson, Placido Polanco and Ivan Rodriguez made it 3-2 with back-to-back base hits.
Magglio Ordonez flied out, but Carlos Guillen walked to load the bases before Shelton's drive to right-center field glanced off Cuddyer's glove for a bases-clearing double.
The Tigers made it 7-3 in the fourth on a RBI single by Rodriguez and a bases-loaded walk to Guillen.
The Twins scored a single run in the seventh when Joel Zumaya walked Justin Morneau with the bases loaded, but Polanco snared White's liner and stepped on second for an inning-ending unassisted double play.
"They've got a good team over there," said White, who played the last two seasons with Detroit. "We've been playing well, but they've been swinging the bat well and things went their way."
Alan Trammell and Phil Garner each had three five-game winning streaks as Tigers manager, while Luis Pujols had two and Buddy Bell and Larry Parrish both had one. ... 3B Tony Batista beat out an infield single in the sixth inning and continued running down the line for at least another 100 feet before finally coming to a stop in deep right field. ... Guillen had more walks in a two-inning span (2) than double-play partner Polanco has all season (1). ... Hunter narrowly escaped injury in the seventh when Zumaya's 98 mph fastball missed his jaw by a few inches. ... DH Dmitri Young (quad) was in the lineup for the first time since May 10, but went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts.

PHOTOS: Snowstorm Induces Countless Travel Headaches Across Northeast
By Kristen Rodman, AccuWeather.com Staff Writer
February 03, 2014; 9:21 PM
On Monday, Feb. 3, 2014, the first of a series of winter storms barreled through the I-95 corridor, dumping snow from Washington, D.C., to New York City, and Boston, Mass.
The snowstorm buried New York City under eight inches of snow, while nearby cities Bristol, Conn., and Providence, R.I., received 3.5 inches. Regardless of the snow totals, thousands flights were delayed or canceled at airports throughout New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

Arriving only hours after the conclusion of the 2014 Super Bowl at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., the storm blanketed the stadium with snow and created countless headaches for football fans trying to return home.

While this snowstorm's threat lessened Monday evening, another storm is already in the making and will reach into the region at midweek.

Re: Hitchin' Phone to computer
a contact problem in the connector(s)/buses/ports on either your SG2 or your PC, or both, or in the USB cable itself. A hardware problem.How do I access that Contacts and Memos on the phone from the pc?
Wireless (circumventing any hardware connection problems), via WiFi and the internet, so there is a slight lag, depending on your connection.
Ideal for remote helpdesk functions for friends and relatives.
And if you leave your home PC and its Teamviewer app 'on' (protected by a password screensaver) you will always have remote access to your PC's full functions, processing power, and storage. Where ever you are.
On your PC that means that your SG2's screen will display edge-to-edge on your PC screen. Then you can control the SG2 remotely, from the PC, with its mouse or trackpad, and a comfortable fullsize keyboard...
Great for IM 'sessions'.

The bewildering fact remains that Solemia, shock winner of the richest prize on the European Turf, would have won by seven lengths – rather than a mere neck – had Orfevre not been in the field at Longchamp on Sunday. But while she may yet lend substance to her transformation, at the Breeders' Cup next month, the consensus among aficionados leaving Paris yesterday was that Orfevre had been handsomely the best horse in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe. The return of the rain that had laid the ground for Solemia's sunlit ambush suggested one obvious culprit. Many, however, were also inclined to volunteer another.
Christophe Soumillon is certainly distraught over his mount's defeat, not least on behalf of the Japanese adventurers whose professionalism radiated through Orfevre both before and during the race, in his condition and acceleration respectively. But the jockey is justified in protesting himself, to some degree, a victim of circumstance.
They had an atrocious draw, in the very widest of 18 stalls. Soumillon duly dropped Orfevre towards the rear, and decided not to push his luck, circling the field instead of seeking a path through weakening horses on the inside. The chestnut none the less motored down the outside with such gusto that he had burst into the lead with 300 yards to go, and quickly opened up by a couple of lengths. In conditions so inimical to flair, the manoeuvre instantly established Orfevre as worthy of the momentous legacy that beckons Japan's first Arc winner.
As Soumillon knew perfectly well, however, his mount does have a history of idling in front. Combined with the generosity of his abrupt effort, in such taxing ground, Orfevre's inattention left the door ajar for the rallying Solemia. In his heartbreak, the man who had won the 2003 running on Dalakhani attested that he had never ridden a better colt than Orfevre – and even seemed prepared to compare him with the queenly Zarkava, his 2008 winner.
"I had a horse to win the Arc, and lost," Soumillon said. "What more can I say? He pulled himself up 150 metres from the finish. It's terrible. When we turned into the straight, and I moved him out, his response was that of a champion. But then he hung in. I switched my whip but he still moved inward. I think he was floundering a bit, after he put that distance between himself and the others."
If he had the chance to ride the race again, Soumillon would surely try to pick his way through the field and so delay his arrival at its head. Even those who absolve him of blame, however, will be dismayed to hear Orfevre's young trainer at such pains to claim it for himself.
"I apologise to all the Japanese fans," Yasutoshi Ikee said. "He had enough to win. I think we proved that a Japanese Triple Crown champion is on a par with the world's best. But this is a matter of win or lose – and we have to win. He was able to run smoothly from the back, but he got left out in front, and was then marked and overtaken. For that to happen, shows that my own skills are not yet on a par with the world's best. From tomorrow, I am going to reassess things and I want to come back to win this race."
Every neutral will share a devout hope that his nation's serial frustrations in Paris will finally – and soon – be redressed by a trainer who could show humility to surpass even the palpable excellence of his colt's preparation.

Action, the only film school in Adelaide for kids and teenagers. The moment I read the first few words on the website, I knew that this would be, without a doubt, the perfect place for me to pursue my film making dreams. I was a nervous mess when I went to my first class in Goodwood, but five minutes in I was already having an amazing time. There's no place quite like KCA to meet like-minded people, make lifelong friends (I still talk to so many of them today), explore all aspects of film making, nurture and grow your skills and to just have an amazing time in general. Not to mention the incredible opportunities KCA opens up; since joining, I've had dozens of films (both KCA and independently made) screened at the Adelaide Kid's Film Festival and in 2015 I had the chance to go to Italy for the Giffoni Film Festival, which is something I never would've know I could do if it hadn't been for KCA. During my time as ambassador, I wouldn't shut up about Kids Camera Action. I was always going on about how excited I was for Tuesday afternoon, and I even convinced one of my friends to do one of the courses with me in Term 3. I showed the films we made to friends and family alike and did every class I possibly could. Even though I'm no longer the ambassador, I will still attend as many classes as I possibly can. There are always new skills, friends and films to be made at KCA and I can't wait to continue!"
I have been working with KCA for nearly a year and it is such a wonderful place to work. I enjoy helping kids develop their creative ideas into films that they are proud to show to the world.

Easy-going Hillary Clinton is not when it comes to public appearances. Just ask the University of Buffalo, which last year not only paid her $275,000 for a speech on its campus but also had to submit to a laundry list of finicky demands to make her happy. Could they tape her words that were costing so dearly, for instance? They could not.
A first-ever glimpse of the diva-like conditions routinely set by the former first lady is offered in the contract that was struck between her agent, the Harry Walker Agency, and the university, and made public this week, following a Freedom of Information request by the Public Accountability Initiative, a public-interest group based in New York.
The fussiness of her stipulations coupled with the size of the fee - though the contract notes the full sum was to be passed on to the Clinton Foundation, the philanthropic organisation set up by her husband, the former President - will compound a growing perception that Mrs Clinton's alleged empathy for the common man and woman takes a distant second place in her heart to imperiousness self-preening and harvesting embarrassing quantities of cash.
This particularly speaking contract, one of scores she has benefited from since leaving the State Department 18 months ago, says for example that she must have final approval over the "sets, backdrops, banners, scenery, logos, settings, etc", and the topic and length of her address were at her "sole discretion". Additionally, she required that the university provide her with "presidential glass panel teleprompter and a qualified operator".
Perhaps oddest was the requirement that her hosts pay an additional $1,000 to have a trained stenographer on hand to transcribe the speech as she delivers it so that she could have an accurate, verbatim version for her records, while at the same time the university would not be permitted any such copy for its archives. No video or even sound recordings would be allowed. The press, by the way, could attend the speech but not a reception before it.
Mrs Clinton remains far and away the front-runner to take her party's presidential nomination two years hence, but some Democrats are becoming anxious about kind of candidate she might turn out to be.
If the party as a whole has recently been feeling a populist tug to the left, Mrs Clinton seems hardly to be equipping herself to respond to it.
For a contrast in styles, as much as anything else, there was the visit today by the New Jersey Governor Chris Christie to Iowa, the first state to hold a caucus in the process of choosing party nominees. With the last event in that state at the county fairgrounds at Davenport, complete with a BBQ chow-down, the day was tailor-made to show off Mr Christie's talents for rubbing shoulders with voters and engaging in off-the-cuff debate and argument. If Mrs Clinton demands a completely controlled, risk-free atmosphere, Mr Christie thrives in non-orchestrated settings.
Until his tarnishing by the traffic-lane closure scandal on the George Washington Bridge last year, Mr Christie had high hopes of being the Republican choice to take on Mrs Clinton if indeed she heads the Democratic ticket in 2016. The visit to Iowa and another to New Hampshire soon were theoretically taken in his capacity as chair of the Republican Governors' Association. Clearly, though, both will be a chance to gauge his revival prospects.
That all things Clinton and cash have suddenly become a topic of fervent debate is largely the fault of the former first lady herself who on the day of the launch of her new book Hard Choices lamented to an ABC TV interviewer that she and her husband had left the White House "dead broke". It was remark that to many observers, including in her own party, seemed as politically inept as it was distasteful.
By some estimates, Hillary and Bill have made about $100m (£58m) in speaking fees alone, charging between $200,000 and $700,000 per appearance. Even their daughter, Chelsea, has joined the family business, commanding $75,000 for each speech. Until recently, meanwhile, NBC News had been paying Chelsea $600,000 a year as a very occasional feature correspondent. That allegedly worked out at $25,000 per minute on air.
These are the kinds of details that led Maureen Dowd, the New York Times columnist, to ponder this week: "The Clintons keep acting as though all they care about is selfless public service. So why does it keep coming back to gross money grabs?"Reuse content

State College schools Mahoning Valley
The Mahoning Valley Scrappers got off to a quick start but failed to capitalize Saturday against the State-College Spikes. Geoffrey Davenport, who made his second start of the season, struggled again. The Scrappers failed to score more than two runs for the fifth straight game as they continue to try to figure out how to score and get on base. A combination of poor pitching and hitting doomed the Scrappers as they fell to 2-4 on the season with a three game losing streak.
The game was close for most of the game until a strong eighth inning by the Spikes. The Scrappers closed in on the Spikes in the sixth inning as the score was 3-2. However, the Spikes five-run eighth-inning was too much to overcome for the Scrappers struggling offense.
Starting pitcher Geoffrey Davenport went four innings, gave up five hits and three earned runs as he had a difficult second outing of the season. Davenport was relieved by Jacob Lee in the 5th inning. Lee had an impressive first outing of the season, pitching three innings and only giving up one run. Following Lee, pitchers Scott Peoples and Jack Wagoner came in in the eighth inning and gave up a combined five earned runs. This eighth inning was devastating for the Scrappers' offense and bullpen.
The Scrappers' starting lineup of hitters failed to capitalize on multiple opportunities on Saturday night. Marcus Bradley had his best offensive game of the season going 2 for 5 and scoring one run.
The Scrappers will look to end their three game losing streak Sunday against the State- College Spikes at 6:05 p.m.
