“In The Mix ” is an experimental film made by Colorado artist and filmmaker John Dawson in 2024. This short film is 100% hand made by drawing, painting and scratching directly onto 16mm film stock. It is paint with a pulse, abstraction that moves and comes alive. I am taking an old school technique and trying to do something modern and current with it. My films are all about the colors, motion and having fun! I hope people are entertained and energized by all of my films. You can think of it like a ride at the amusement park or view it the same way you might view fireworks or abstract painting. The films I make are designed to bridge all language and cultural barriers and are 100% universal. Norman McLaren, Len Ley, Stan Brakhage and Steve Woloshen were all great influences and inspiration for this work.
