Renderrabbits
Tyler Klein Longmire
Inspired by Andy Warhol’s screen tests, Renderrabbits is a series of animated portraits of the One Yellow Rabbit performance ensemble. Tyler Klein Longmire pays homage to the ensemble using archival and recent footage to make an animated film. He painstakingly traced each frame using a technique called ‘rotoscope’ with the intention to “animate their past and weave it into their present, as we all look towards the future.”
Tyler Klein Longmire is an animator, designer, and theatre-maker based in Calgary. He works at the Quickdraw Animation Society, an artist-run centre for independent animators in Calgary, and is a founding member of the experimental performance collective Humble Wonder Theatre.
