This multimedia treatment of T.S. Eliot's The Love Song of J.Alfred Prufrock received a name check in the books section of this Saturday's Times newspaper, so we thought we'd track down the clip and let you see it for yourself. The animation is by Everett Wilson who says “I produced the visuals for this poem by T.S. Eliot in the fall of 2001,
during my brief time in the Media program at the University of
Lethbridge. The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, an Animated Rendition
of T.S. Eliot's Poem appeared in the 'highlights reel' of the
Melbourne International Student Animation Festival, which traveled to
select universities across Australia. After receiving feedback on
YouTube, I replaced the original narration with T.S. Eliot's voice in
this 2007 revision.”
I Love this poem, an excellent choice. It was carefully thought through and had a hauntedness and power to it. It depicted sorrow well and left the viewer with a great impression. Deep Regards
Deborah
