This is one of our oldest and favorite works,
done for the 40th Jazzaldia Festival at San Sebastian.
The challenge was to build a "world" using only
music notation. Starting up with a pentagram,
we travel into a jazz environment that has more to
do with having fun at the beach and less to do with
getting into a dark smoky joint.

This work has been used as a sample of what we
like to call “digital crafting” because most of the
characters were done frame-by-frame. We shot live
action samples and then positioned the notes
one by one and step by step.
