Heavy Metal with Morgan Galen King and Philip Gelatt - E020
Rotoscoping is far from dead, and these two men prove it. Co-Directors of The Spine of Night, Morgan Galen King (Mongrel, Exordium) and Philip Gelatt (Europa Report, Love, Death and Robots) join me to discuss the cult film that hasn’t left them since childhood, Heavy Metal.
Getting to share in conversation with them about Heavy Metal was a dream come true. The passion, thoughtfulness and humour they approach the film through was a joy to witness, especially as their suggestion of the film finally gave me creedence to watch it.
I’m delighted to have shared this discussion with them about:
Approaching storytelling in an Anthology series
How Heavy Metal came into their lives on VHS
How they referenced Heavy Metal in the Spine of Night
The Importance of music in stitching disparate elements together
& so much more in this conversation!
I’m excited to hear your opinions and thoughts!
