ESSAY:  PRIMAL - SOUND OF A STORY

What do you get when you cross a caveman and a dinosaur?  10 episodes of brutal violence.

​

When I started Any-mation, originally I had 6 video ideas that were born from different root aspects of animation. Character Design, Background Design, Movement, what it means to tell a story and so on. One area I did want to come back and look at it Sound Design, but I was waiting on the right show. Then Primal came along. Not only was it tremendously captivating and exciting, it added the extra challenge of not having any dialogue.

​

Using the visuals paired with emoting through sound effects, it was the perfect opportunity to visit a video about sound design and revisit a modern master like Genndy Tartakovsky. What a join it was to make this video essay.
