Brazey

Filmmaker and animator Jared D. Weiss recently released his latest animated short, Brazey, which is now available for viewing on Vimeo. Weiss is a creative filmmaker who created an impressive short, featuring music that was recorded all in one take, and then the short was animated to the music that was recorded directly without any storyboards or script. His film comes together in a quick, yet also very playful, story of a little, animated character performing an interpretive dance to almost like the music that would come out of a Jack-in-a-box. He performed all the audio for the short on a Kalimba. If you can believe it, and music was recorded with an iPod Touch using a Music Memos/Garage Band program. It’s symbolic of Weiss talent how he was able to put together such an effective piece of work with just some basic tools. When telling a story, artistic vision is something that’s more important than having a lot of high-tech bells and whistles or a huge animation budget. Weiss’
