‘LOVING VINCENT,’ an Animated Film Featuring 12 Oil Paintings per Second by Over 100 Painters

‘Loving Vincent’ will be the world’s first feature length painted animation, with every shot painted with oil paints on canvas, just as Van Gogh himself painted. Written & Directed by Dorota Kobiela & Hugh Welchman, produced by Poland’s BreakThru Films & UK’s Trademark Films. The film is scheduled for a 2017 release.

“Every one of the 65,000 frames of the film is an oil-painting hand-painted by 125 professional oil-painters who traveled from all across Europe to the Loving Vincent studios in Poland and Greece to be a part of the production.”

“The film was first shot as a live action film with actors then hand-painted over frame-by-frame in oils. The final effect is an interaction of the performance of the actors playing Vincent’s famous portraits, and the performance of the painting animators, bringing these characters into the medium of paint.”

“Loving Vincent is an investigation delving into the life and controversial death of Vincent Van Gogh, one of the world’s most beloved painters, as told through his paintings and by the characters that inhabit them,”

“The intrigue unfolds through interviews with the characters closest to Vincent and through dramatic reconstructions of the events leading up to his death.”

To @vice @viceuk and your classist, ableist journalist Amy Walker. Please stop with your clickbait. Yesterday I didn’t want to stop and talk because I was taking pictures and I was doing a job for the shop I work in that’s in the Brick Lane area but Amy pested me that it was for a good reason. That she wanted to discuss why people were not reading in the UK. So I agreed, I told her that I think the school system is doomed for failure because there is not a single way of education. Putting kids in a stressful position because we are forced to understand them in a singular way. She almost put me on the spot asking if I knew any writers, I started to understand that this was trick question that she was trying to catch me out. Throughout the whole interview she was sneering at me. You know that feeling when you feel like someone is above you just because their white, middle class and they probably have read more books than you. I felt uncomfortable throughout the rest of the conversation even when I was telling her about my shit education, but there she stood sneering waiting to hear her headlines.

And this is the problem with you Vice, Im not butthurt over being featured in something like this, I guess its my own fault for agreeing. But stop using talentless journalists who have a superiority complex and went to a private school to ask us who went to “crappy schools” as Amy put it and make us look as stupid as some of us might already feel. Its not helping any more people read so I don’t get it.

I would date an actor just so I can tell people that my boyfriend’s an actor and then they’d be like “oh? What’s he been in?” And I’d say “me” and raise my wine glass and laugh because in this scenario I’m at a fancy cocktail party.
