Convert & Jon Klassen: RBC Blue Water Project
This gentle spot for RBC’s Blue Water Project directed by The Ebeling’s Group’s Convert charms me with its earthy palette and restrained animation style. Each comp is well planned but not overly wrought, walking the line between minimalism and an easy-going gestural style for a blend that’s calm and approachable.
Big props to Jon Klassen, whose illustration style defined the aesthetic for the spot. He’s a perfect match for the message at hand. If you’re new to Klassen’s work, make sure to watch “An Eye for Annai” after you’ve checked out his illustration portfolio.
Visually this piece of animation is subtle. flat and deep space is interesting, an approach which I could include in my project.

Martha Colburn
Martha Colburn uses cut-and-paste animation techniques to create collage films that are both fantastical and stubbornly rooted in the material. Her recent films use hand-manipulated gels and "special effects" on found footage and original animations. In addition to Myth Labs, the artist will present short films spanning her entire career, each accompanied by a rotating ensemble of seven musicians and foley artists. Martha will also be performing an improvised expanded cinema work incorporating 16mm film, slides and sound.
Martha Colburn is an animator, filmmaker, and artist who lives and works in New York, NY. Her films have been presented by museums and film festivals around the world, including the Centre Pompidou, the 2006 Whitney Biennial, the Sundance Film Festival, and the Stedelijk Museum. She has collaborated and toured with indie rock band Deerhoof, and has recorded six music albums. Her work has been supported by the New York Foundation on the Arts, the New York State Council on the Arts, and the Jerome Foundation.
