We talk the impact of music, the importance of editing, animating in photoshop, superhero oversaturation, using Kickstarter, loops, black frames, creaking doors, and coughing into your mouth (it'll make sense).

Director & animator Jamil Lahham joined us in part 1 of this conversation where we discussed winning an Oscar, working on Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs and what is a bad film? In the second part of our live show, Jamil tells us about his attempt at stand-up comedy, his award winning animation and the attitude needed to complete those personal projects. Jamil tells about his short Dirty Laundry Day which recently won Best Animation at the Filmmaker International Film Festival in Spain. Chris was inspired by Jamil’s blog about his short especially, “Do ANYTHING a day.” Jamil says you have to struggle with your brain. You have to stop yourself from quitting sometimes. For example, seeing student animations from the French schools of Supinfocom or Gobelins should be inspiring, not a deterrent. Paul quotes Merlin Mann about setting priorities and being who you want to be. Paul loves the sound design in Dirty Laundry Day and Jamil shares that it was done by Chris Kukla. Jamil was incredibly happy with Christina Ellis, who did amazing work with the color of Dirty Laundry Day. Some of Jamil’s CG inspiration comes from Pocoyo, a Spanish-British animated series. Jamil suggests that we watch Anomalisa, a gorgeous stop-motion film. There you have it! You can find the award-winning animator and all around inspiring dude, Jamil Lahham on Twitter or at his personal blog.

“You go to school to learn a craft in some sense, but more than anything else, you’re learning about yourself.” The Michigan-Edmonton duo of Paul & Chris were lucky enough to chat with animator & director Jamil Lahham who shared those words about university. Jamil tells us about the organic nature of traditional animation, animating cycles for iPads and the weight of an Oscar. Jamil was a part of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, the Academy award winning The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore and his wonderful short Dirty Laundry Day. If you want to learn even more about Jamil, have a look at this interview at episcura. Jamil went to Ringling College of Art + Design and has mentored students in the animation department for the last 3 years. While in Syria, Jamil attended Damascus University to study interior design. Jamil did his internship at EA. Artist William Salazar explains how he prefers to draw 2D over his 3D work to get the movement right. Andy Serkis (Golem) waged war animators back in 2014, saying he did all the work. The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore won an Oscar. Jamil said he got to carry it around the studio briefly, and that it is ‘heavy as s**t!” Paul has downloaded The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr. Morris Lessmore app for his daughters and they love it. The movie and the app are based on a story by WIlliam Joyce. Jamil is learning Python because it works in Maya. Jamil challenges the idea of “bad” movies on our Film Frown podcast. “What is good and bad?” Jamil and hosts agree that you need to seek your own happiness and not compare yourself to others. Chris says former guest Sally Ann is a perfect example of making your own way. Stay tuned for part 2 where we learn about Jamil’s animated short and how one stays focused. Thanks to you for listening. A very special thanks to our patrons and of course Jamil Lahham. Support Montreal Sauce on Patreon
