The post ‘This’ by Malcolm Sutherland appeared first on Cartoon Brew.

An ‘Anijam’ is a collaborative animation where various artists create individual short animated segments that are linked together to make one larger film. For the first time in Canadian history, 15 of Canada’s most acclaimed independent animators have come together to create a collaborative animated film. "Yellow Sticky Notes: Canadian Anijam" is an innovative and global approach to animation filmmaking and unites animators from coast to coast, from Vancouver to Halifax and all parts in between, to self reflect on one day of their lives using only 4x6 inch yellow sticky notes, a black pen and animation meditation.

As a planetary storm approaches, a lone shaman manages to avoid disaster.

Malcolm Sutherland applies his unmistakable style to the Ninja Turtles.

In this beautiful new, surreal animation by the ridiculously prolific Montreal animator, Malcolm Sutherland, “an explorer adventures into an unknown world… yet it seems that he has been there before.”

Montreal Animator Malcolm Sutherland shared his latest video with me. La Fete is like watching a sketchbook of observational life drawing come to life. It shows the power that sound can have on even the simplest of animations. Beautiful.

Also, his entries for Star Wars Uncut are brilliant, and I hereby demand that he now animate the entire film:
