Scanner Darkly Pitch from Brian White on Vimeo. Note: You should watch this on Vimeo, Blogger has cropped it.
io9 has posted animator Brian White's vision for A Scanner Darkly - and it's dark. White created this after hearing Linklater had secured the rights, but couldn't get anyone to look at his work. I like it quite a bit, and think it's true to the spirit of the project. But, I also think this vision would have displaced a lot of the text's humanity. After all, this is a story about people, and if you can't relate or if you see them as fundamentally different, most of the book's power will be lost on you. I wish we lived in a world where any artist could realize their vision and these visions could compete in the marketplace of ideas.
