| Like everyone else in the world, I was shocked and saddened with the events of 09-11-01. I kept trying to 'get back into my work', but damned if nothing else could block out the horrific images we all witnessed live, either where they occurred, or on TV. Soon after, I received a very good poem that brightened my day somewhat...and inspired me to adapt it into an animated short film which clocks in at 2 min 57 sec. It's an uplifting, yet simplistic take on the classic Dr. Suess story, 'The Grinch' (you can download the poem in its entirety below)...I had to edit a few words here and there for time, but the sporit of the original is in tact. I recently discovered the authors' name (Robert Suggs), and he is a published writer (see link below)...so please ignore my plea at the end of the film that asks your help in figuring out who the author of the original poem is. I hope you enjoy it! |
