Film director James Douglas: biography, career, and where to

Artfilm

James Douglas

ARTFILM is condensed new art. Equal time of 1/12th of a second is given to art objects animated in living black and white. Patterns are created as shapes change into one another. The music has an effect on the images seen. It is fun to blink at. Aldo Ciccolini plays Erik Satie on the concert Grand. –J. D.

Sacrifice

James Douglas

An animated Miss America. It strips away the false facade to show the real facade. You'll see faces cut in half, ocean liners, a car, mannequins and marbles, a cow, a guy in pajamas, loose eyes, and 24 frames a second. –J. D.

Mince Meet

James Douglas

An animated film of tiny images made of halftone and hard edges on rough and and smooth paper. They expand and compress, push each other, censor themselves, move, open, and leave an ominous feeling. Genuine home-made academy leader begins and ends this film. –J. D.
