Hello, my name is Joanna Priestley and I've directed and produced 20 hand made, animated films. I am working on three new films: Dear Pluto (character animation made with Flash and Maya, sound designed and produced by Lance Limbocker), Eye Liner (abstract films made with Flash, sound designed and produced by Jamie Haggerty) and Pattern Language. The palette of Pattern Language includes pink and purple since I had never worked with these colors.

I also run an internship program, practice medicinal herbalism and organize costume events for Burning Man and Halloween. The Children of Chaos had a wonderful camp at Burning Man this year, in a busy location across from Center Cafe. It was our final Gold Parade and we presented the Scarlet Blister Puffs and the Oppposable Thumb Bar. The art at Burning Man is fascinating. If you have not been, go next year!
