Bakshi animator documents jail experience

Post by idragosani »

Interesting story about animator Elana Pritchard who spent a couple of months last summer in a county jail. She was working for Ralph Bakshi at the time and he suggested she document her experience with a pencil. Here is her story:

She also has a Kickstarter campaign for a personal (hand-drawn) animation project called 'The Circus':

She actually had some followup meetings with the sheriff's office and they are changing some of the hygiene policies in the county because of her cartoons!
