Episode 8: Pete Mason

Welcome to Cartoon Cosmonauts - a podcast all about animated short films and their creators. I'm your host Joseph Orr and each week features a new guest giving us the lowdown on their approach to making animation.

This week's guest is Pete Mason and we'll be discussing his short animated film "Melchior Strasse". It's a voyeuristic tale of one man’s misguided quest to create life. It’s a beautiful film with some real classic Frankenstein undertones. I would encourage you to watch it first and then follow along as we discuss it in the podcast.

If you'd like to get in touch with Pete or check out some of his amazing behind-the-scenes content, best place to find him is on Facebook as Pete Mason or watch his work on his Vimeo account.

If you'd like to get in touch with me, for feedback, questions or even to come on the show to discuss your own short, you can find me online as Speak Broccoli on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube.
