Heavy Metal, Fire and Ice, and A Scanner Darkly are all examples of rotoscope films. This week directors Philip Gelatt and Morgan Galen King join us to talk about The Spine of Night, their rotoscope fantasy film that was 7 years in the making. We also spend some time talking about animation technology, Metallica, and the found footage film one of our guests reveals that he wrote.
