Animated Self-Portraits

Sketched identities collide in this 1989 split-screen showdown where 27 animators turn the camera on themselves, drafting autobiographical sketches in wildly mismatched styles. One rapid-fire mosaic of ego and aesthetics that never lands on a single look. The rare short that feels like a preview reel for the next century of animation.
