Music & sound design by Donald Fagen; Larry Packer, Richard Grando & Steve Silverstein; Lee Dichter; & Andy Aaron. Digital restorations from 16mm film with thanks to New York Women in Film & Television, DuArt Media Services, Linda Young and Irwin Young. © 2019 In Motion Productions, Inc.

Imaginative colorful drawings and fabricated objects are pixilated on location. No digital or optical effects were used in filming. Aaron’s experimental animations are quintessentially cinematic. One frame at a time with her Bolex camera, the films explore qualities unique to pre-digital movie-making augmented by Jane's own handmade production tools and techniques. The films have been seen on PBS, HBO, Showtime, & TV networks internationally; Metropolitan Museum of Art & Museum of Modern Art and other permanent collections; Animation Festivals in Annecy, Zagreb, Ottawa, Bristol, and Hiroshima; and NY, London, Edinburgh, Sydney, Telluride and Tribeca Film Festivals.
