'Illuminatus' short film screens Oct. 30

 


A short, animated adaptation of Illuminatus!  ten minutes long, will be screened at Film Quest in Provo, Utah, on Oct. 30. Here are details from the guy who made the film, Chris Kalis (of the Chandeliers). Details from Mr. Kalis:

"The festival also has a virtual program and it will also be playing there, so people can buy tickets to view it online during the festival dates.

"The short film is a culmination of about 8 years of work involving over 50 animation student collaborators at DePaul University in Chicago (where I teach animation). It also features voice acting by Alex Cox, Jon Glaser, and Gregg Turkington. 

"The full short film is 10 mins long ...  it works as a short introduction to the world of Illuminatus! 

"I still make music, my band Chandeliers is now focused on an electronic music radio show we do on lumpenradio.com called Chando Radio and I am in an electronic group called Drasii."

I've seen it and it is AWESOME!! Hopefully this will set off a chain reaction that leads to much more!

I also saw it, and even though I yearn for a live action mini-series, this was amazingly well done.
