The Spine, exploring style as a story telling technique.
Landreth has been drawn to his unique style because it is something that he doesn’t see very often – using animation to tell emotional or psychological-based stories of people who are otherwise real and amongst us.
The story was personal – came from observing relationships, wondering why people remain in poisonous and destructive relationships. Landreth feels it is psychological-driven and these feed people identities (as stunted as they may appear externally).
Landreth feels that the style must be used sparingly – it’s possible to bring out a new layer of story telling to get the idea without being too literal. Representing something psychological or emotional – then you may tell as story without over-powering/extensive dialogue etc (visual story-telling technique).
