Farewell, My favorite anime director-Satoshi Kon.

When I was listening to the "Millennium Actress" orignal sound track last night,I read Satoshi Kon's died news on twitter.I was shaked because he was so young as famous director.

For every animator and movie maker,it is really sad news.He was the only one japanese director who could combine animation language and movie language together very well.Even in this world.His movie looks like a psychoanalysis,not just show really simple story.You could think a lot after you watched them.I was really suprised I saw his storyboard at the first time,it looks like a final movie screenshot exactly .For animation,the editing just looks like movie cutting.

My favorite is "Millennium Actress",I couldn't remember how many times I watched.

R.I.P Satoshi,hope you have peaceful life in the other world.

  1. I find it so hard to believe... his movies are just so alive, fresh, & young, so I figured he must also be young & healthy. Great illustration, he would have really liked it, I think. RIP Satoshi Kon ):
