We were very fortunate to be in the company of Priit Pärn, the world renowned Estonian animator. He was in the UK hosting a Q&A about his work while showing his stuff, including his new film, which was fantastic.

BRWC grabbed his arm and threw questions at him. Above is the first of a three-parter and we apologise for some sound issues. We will get better. We’re trying to make these (and other bits) available as podcasts for your enjoyment. Any help regarding this would be very much appreciated.

In this part Priit talks about the importance of humour in his work, views on advice and his mobile phone ringtone.

With thanks to Dempsey’s, Animation@Newport School Of Art, Media & Design, Caroline Parsons, Leonie Sharrock and Walestonia Festival.

Enjoy.
