About

Of All the Gin Joints (David Kornfield, 2023) is a quirky doc about Casablanca – a Moroccan-themed Mexican restaurant in Venice Beach. Working with LÄ«na Ozoliņa and Hugo Rodriguez at Glassworks, we created two key sequences: main titles featuring iconic Venice Beach locations, and a menu sequence mapping out three generations of family connections. Hugo developed the concept and drew the portraits, Lina illustrated the opening sequence, and I handled the design, animation and compositing for both pieces.
