  3. JAKE PARKER and Missile Mouse: The Star Crusher

    Jake Parker is a talented artist friend of ours with a new children’s book out. It’s called Missile Mouse: The Star Crusher, it’s pubbed by Graphix, an imprint of Scholastic Books, and we dig it thoroughly. He kindly sent us a copy to preview before our interview with him and it’s full of high adventure, sci-fi fun and life lessons.

    And even though it’s a kid’s book, Jake doesn’t skimp at all on things like cool tech and alien character designs. The look and feel of Missile’s world is pretty funky.

    We ran Parker down at his home in Connecticut and talked to him about The Star Crusher project, his background as an animator with Blue Sky Studios, his work on the film Horton Hears a Who and the whole thing. It was good stuff!

  4. Wes Anderson - The Treatment on KCRW

    Martin Scorsese once called Wes Anderson (Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou) his logical heir. Is it the way Anderson creates tension in the room or did Scorsese one day imagine Anderson at work in stop-action animation? The director of Fantastic Mr. Fox joins Elvis Mitchell on The Treatment.

    Anderson, who loved the Roald Dahl book on which the film is based, explains how he got permission from the Dahl family to use ‘Danny, the Champion of the World’ in his screenplay, and that he cast George Clooney, not because of his voice but because he’d always wanted to work with him. He reveals why he made the animals American and the humans British, and how he based the movements of Rat (voiced by Willem Dafoe) on the choreography of Bob Fosse. Finally, he discusses finding inspiration in Ray Harryhausen and the Brothers Quay, the importance of doing a stop-motion animation film with fur, and how this style involves more decision-making than a live-action film.
