Celestial Navigations Short Films of Al Jarnow by various (Numero Group) $30.00 – Wow! Understated might be a good word for the amazing experimental animated films of Al Jarnow. His work brought everyday objects to life in unexpected ways and is probably best recognized in his memorable interludes for Sesame Street and 3-2-1 Contact. Combining a whole bevy of animation techniques, these films are smart and poignant- you’re as likely to learn about counting to 9 as you are about the waxing and waning of civilization. Numero Group continues their tradition of excellence with this attractively packaged look through Jarnow’s ouvre and includes a book and documentary focused on his storyboarding and technique. *DVD includes 45 of Jarnow’s films and a 30 minute documentary and comes with a 60-page perfect bound booklet.
