Patrick Smith presents Masks. Scheduled release 2008.

Began as an audio experiment with recording artist Karl von Kries, "Masks" illustrates modern exploitation, production and consumption in animated terms. Smith insisted that the audio come first, thus all images exist to tell the musical story, instead of the typical method of scoring music after animation has been completed. In this manner, "Masks" projects itself as a musical interpretation, a contemporary and disturbing version of the Disney formula of "Fantasia". Patrick Smith and Karl von Kries have collaborated in the past on the award winning films "Drink" and "Delivery".
