Yellow Sticky Notes

After realizing that yellow sticky notes, filled with “To Do” lists, were consuming his life, director Jeff Chiba Stearns decided to visually self-reflect on his own filmmaking journey by animating 2,300 of those same sticky notes. Blending hand-drawn images and text with an original musical score by Genevieve Vincent, this “animation meditation” played in the official competition at the 2008 Tribeca Film Festival.

    GAH i’m sorry that i’m 14 and i listen to what i hear. for one minute i’m told that he’s hawaiian, then black, then korean, then back to black. you really dont need to inform me about racism and specifics. I’m not racist. I’m nowhere near racist. We’ve been going over and over racism in school for the past three years, it. leave me alone.

    So it’s special because he’s black? I thought this world was supposed to be colorblind… And he’s not black, he’s a rich American blend, formed in this Melting Pot of Nationalism.

    ummm… obama is the first black president. Thats huge. I agree, considering that thousands of people died due to that attack.
    The thing is, Obama has to clean up after that dumbass W. Bush. The poor guy is trying to get us out of a bad spot.

  24. “Next to Obama …
    “Next to Obama being elected.” Sorry, a presidential election doesn’t compare to a terrorist attack of that magnitude.

    That was really great and creative. Keep up the good work.
