00:00:01,168 --> 00:00:03,959
My name is Kim Hazel and I'm the director
of <i>Dinosaur Barbarian.</i>

2
00:00:06,001 --> 00:00:09,793
The idea for <i>Dinosaur Barbarian</i>
was born as a joke at my lunch table.

3
00:00:09,876 --> 00:00:16,001
<i>It's inspired by the 2D cartoons</i>
<i>of the '80s and '80s fantasy illustration.</i>

4
00:00:16,084 --> 00:00:17,834
<i>When I was in college learning animation,</i>

5
00:00:17,918 --> 00:00:19,584
if I just wanted to feel pumped up,

6
00:00:19,668 --> 00:00:22,084
I would just watch
some cartoon theme songs.

7
00:00:22,168 --> 00:00:24,459
I've always just loved them.
I love the energy.

8
00:00:26,043 --> 00:00:29,418
<i>We're collaborating with</i>
<i>the amazing composers the Mondo Boys.</i>

9
00:00:29,501 --> 00:00:32,876
<i>They wrote an amazing melody,</i>
<i>and it's super catchy,</i>

10
00:00:32,959 --> 00:00:35,418
and I sing it in the shower
and stuff, so... (LAUGHS)

11
00:00:35,501 --> 00:00:38,543
<i>The entire short is traditionally</i>
<i>2D-animated,</i>

12
00:00:38,626 --> 00:00:41,918
<i>which means that every frame</i>
<i>was drawn by an animator.</i>

13
00:00:42,001 --> 00:00:45,834
<i>It was very special because</i>
<i>I got to work alongside animators</i>

14
00:00:45,918 --> 00:00:48,626
<i>who were in charge of characters</i>
<i>that I grew up loving.</i>

15
00:00:49,251 --> 00:00:52,668
And now, they're animating my weird idea.

17
00:00:55,084 --> 00:00:57,501
Thank you so much,
and I hope you enjoy the short.

18
00:00:57,584 --> 00:01:00,834
I hope the song gets stuck in your head
like it is in mine. (LAUGHS)
