AIFF 2009 - Anchorage's Paxson Woelber on His Two Animated Films

Paxson Woelber grew up in Anchorage and is back here working after college.  He has two films in the festival:

Hugo in the Land of Lemonsharks - which was chosen to be in competition
Hugo is part of the Animation 1 program which plays:
Saturday, December 5 – 5:45pm – Out North
Tuesday, December 8 – 7:45pm – Out North


The Prospector - which has some killer Alaska scenery that he created and a lead player who communicates mainly with his eyes. 
Prospector is part of the Animation 2 program which plays:
Thursday, December 10 – 5:30pm – Out North
Sunday, December 13 – 12:45pm – Out North
Breathing Room

And since Paxson is an Alaskan film maker, they both play in Snowdance 3 which plays:
Saturday, December 5 – 12:30pm – Bear Tooth
Tuesday, December 8 – 5:30pm – Out North



And if you can't make it, the links will get you to the YouTube editions of the two short films.

I videod Paxson yesterday in downtown Anchorage.  He talks about the two films and also the benefits of having his films up on YouTube.  He'll be at the Festival so look for him and say hi.
