The God Man Full Film release!
It is with great excitement that I finally get to share the full version of my film The God Man with all of you!
Synopsis:
The God Man is a 9.5 min short animated film that follows an interview of Jonah Weisman, the man who discovered the entity “The God Man” drifting through space.
A gigantic thank you to the tiny crew that made this film possible:
Jason Stamatyades for your stellar soundtrack, this film would be half the film without it.
Trevor Henderson your God Man design captured the eerie otherworldliness that I was aiming for, and when it comes to wild monsters, you’re the guy!
Lily Chiao you took a huge amount of work off my plate by doing every single frame of Jonah’s frame-by-frame lip sync, and added so much life to the character.
To my loving Ma and Pa for your endless love and support but also a huge thanks to my mama cause she submitted the film to every festival and managed that whole side of it, we wouldn’t have been shown anywhere without ya.
Pazit Cahlon for voicing for the interviewer.
Shu Murakami for your work translating this to have Japanese subtitles.
David Lunney, Staff Physicist at CRNS-U Paris-Saclay for his mathematical calculations about the speed and size of The God Man.
Elinor Gates, Staff Astronomer at the Lick Observatory for answering all my questions about The Lick.
And of course the NASA image and video library for the select scenes with video and photos.
It’s been on quite the journey around the world; awarded with Best Animation at the Essex Film Festival, a Silver Award from the Independent Shorts Awards in Los Angeles, and the Audience Award at Shorts Not Pants.
Along the way, we’ve had the honour to be shown at many other festivals including:

A most sincere thank you to all who lent a hand making this happen and to all of the festivals who were excited to share it with your audiences. I’m so unbelievably honored that it was shown in so many places around the world and has had such a positive response from many who have seen it. If ya take the time to watch it, I thank you from the bottom of my heart and really hope you enjoy it.
