RE: Early CGI Animation - Adam Powers - The Juggler (1981)

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

A shiny example in this regard is the following CGI animation by Adam Powers entitled 'The Juggler' which was released in 1981. The background music (which is entirely instrumental) is quite unsettling and it makes the entire atmosphere of the surreal film look quite daunting to any new viewer. But the instrumental music also has quite nice and rather calm segments, especially in the beginning and the end. It sort of reminds me of the song 'The Juggler' by jazz fusion band Weather Report which was released on the band's iconic 'Heavy Weather' studio album in 1977. I find quite a bunch of similarities in sound and concept to Weather Report here. Who knows, perhaps Adam Powers, the animator/creator was influenced by the band given the fact that he was a fan of their music? Might as well be...

Dear @vikthor , I agree with you! Music gives life and immersion to the video!
