Dr. Watermellon and His Orchastra (sic)
16mm film, 6 minutes, 1991 (additional images 1, 2)
This animated film is structured as a biography of Dil and Del, the infamous Siamese pickles who had become great animation directors but were held back by their constant disputes. The film means a lot to me because of the voices I was able to get for the characters, primarily drawn from the Regina film community including Jean Oser as Dr. Watermellon, Darryl Eberhardt, Angelos Hatzitolios, Marc LaFoy, Verna McDonald, Belinda New, Larry Bauman, Stephan Onda. The Screaming Banana makes his second appearance, following "I Can't Go Home" and preceding "Life Is Like Lint". PHOTOS OF ME CREATING THE WORK -
