FIGURES OF SPEECH is a thirty minute compilation of short interstitials that uses pioneering animation techniques. These digitally animated, documentary style interviews focus on how gesture, facial expression and other body motions combine to communicate personality. Using new software, FIGURES OF SPEECH turns real people interviewed for parts in a short film into cartoons, infusing their distinct personalities into animated characters. The result is a variation on verité documentary, but with a hand drawn aesthetic. The particular attention paid to audio and the unrehearsed nature of the interviews adds to the documentary style of these playful spots.
Premiere: Public Television, February 2001
