Pat O'Neill

ActorDirector
Pat O'Neill is an American independent experimental filmmaker and artist who has also worked in the special effects industry. Although his work embraces an extremely wide technical and aesthetic scope, he is perhaps best known for his startling, surrealistic, and humorous film compositions achieved through a mastery of the optical printer. His films and other artworks often reveal a complex and mysterious interest in the connections and clashes between the natural world and human civilization. O'Neill has also produced a prodigious body of work in drawing, collage, sculpture, installation, and many other media.

Bustin' Down the Door

Bustin' Down the Door

During the winter of 1975 in Hawaii, surfing was shaken to its core. A group of young surfers from Australia and South Africa sacrificed everything and put it all on the line to create a sport, a culture, and an industry that is today worth billions of dollars and has captured the imagination of the world. With a radical new approach and a brash colonial attitude, these surfers crashed headlong into a culture that was not ready for revolution. Surfing was never to be the same again.

Sleeping Dogs (Never Lie)

Sleeping Dogs (Never Lie)

The day they filled all that gravel in front of Jack and Jerry's old studio on Venice Blvd. A yellow bird fascinated by reflection. Several views from the San Francisco Marine Museum on a gray day in December. Three views of Mercer Street, New York after the second big snowstorm of January, '78. Several fogs, a strange puddle, and a female Husky induced to howl by humans. (This film is perhaps best seen after one of the others, like a "chaser.")

Moving Targets

Moving Targets

An exercise in special effects, using conventional travelling matte techniques on a contact printer. A small box (whose classic dimensions animators using an Oxberry field guide will recognize) moves across the screen revealing certain objets d'interest, hiding others and performing other tricks. The last event features Patrick O'Neill in his first screen role along with a docile Siamese, busy ants and a palsied hand.
