Eric Goldberg's animation for Hong Kong's new Buddhist cultural center
Animator Eric Goldberg was interviewed about a cartoon he helped make for a new Buddhist cultural center opening near the Hong Kong Disneyland.
LinkNow, I say "film" but it's environmental, so we have in-house gags like when something gets destroyed there's dust that spews out over the audience, when rain occurs there's actual physical rain in the theater. We've got 360-degree sound. There are gags that go all the way around the theater. And obviously this one is quite whimsical compared to the other film that they are doing, Walking With Buddha, which is directed by my producers on this film, Allen Yamashita and Oric Scott De Las Casas. It's much more serious, about the life of Buddha. I think they cast me right to do the funny one.
