Signed by the author, whose full film never saw the light of day, but of which you can find traces online. A relic of early 2000s animation."Rustboy started out purely as a hobby. I was looking for a substantial personal project to occupy my spare time, and decided to rekindle an old interest by creating a short-film. With the notion that documenting the film-making process might be an intersting subject for my first attempt at building a website, I embarked on the project, and in no time at all the site and film were generating considerable interest. That was over two years ago and I'm now working full-time on a not-so-short version of the film, having secured private investment. The project has amassed such a body of design work to this point that I considere it worthwhile compiling that work in some tangible form. This volume chronicles my first attempt at film-making to date, and serves as an exercise in 'home grown' publishing, the idea being that the proceeds will help fund the rest of the project." --Jacket. ¶ **Somewhat heavy item.
