Gray: It's all about pattings-on-the-back with us. We just text each other and share files over Google Drive. So we don't touch each other, or look at each other, or talk to each other really. It's sort of like that, except Dan lives in Budapest and I live in New York.

How does that work on an animation? One day you tell Daniel how to draw and then vice versa? Do you guys stand over each other or pat each other on the back after a good frame? There was a story first, but it influenced the visuals as we developed it, and vice versa. Like anyone else, we try and make sure that everything fits and carries its weight toward what we're trying to achieve. Did the story or style come first? Or how did they influence each other? It's dark, haunting, and wonderfully enhances the tension of the story itself. It was formed from the more interesting aspects of some other ideas we were toying with at the time-plus the guy next to us bit off his tongue with homemade dentures. We were stuck on a train in France when the main story was written.
We were joking about a pair of twins only having one pair of dentures between them, and the rest is history, kind of. The story goes, we were stuck on the Eurostar for hours after a bird hit the power lines just sitting somehow in first class waiting for another train to come pick us up. Where did you guys come up with this story? I have to make sure it's not an autobiography.
Gray: Those are good, but don't forget hitting your teeth with the edge of a knife, with real conviction.īrown: My favorite sound is Céline Dion, which I guess for most people is one in the same. So four and a half.īrown: Oh yeah, my front tooth is chipped too because I was sweeping and didn't know where to put the broom to move my bike, so I put it in my mouth.Īre some of your favorite sounds forks scraping along plates, nails on chalkboards, or any noise at the dentist? Four of them, I think? And half of my front tooth is fake after I hit myself in the face trying to lift a plank that was frozen to a pond.

In fact, I had eight teeth removed, but technically I have all the teeth I'm meant to have.ĭaniel Gray: I had some molars out before they fitted me with a full brace. I did have some extra canines though-double rows of them like a shark. I also choked on a hardboiled sweet on my sixth birthday and was banned from ever eating one again. Mother pumped me full of fluoride as a child and I broke my glass candy jar and then there were no more treats. Tom Brown: I don't know about Daniel, but I do. VICE: Do you and Daniel have all of your teeth? I caught up with Gray and Brown to talk about their new film. Remember: "Be true to your teeth, and they won't be false to you." So if you're fed up with caring for your calcium-rich chiclets, give this film a shot and see if you won't cringe a little less at your next appointment. The short is scarier than the dentist and is probably the reason I'll go back again in six months. But we should know that when you try to play God, things rarely go right, and with their award-winning film, the filmmakers prove that there's value in taking care of what you have. In teeth, Gray and Brown create a visceral world soaked in gloom and menace-an ideal atmosphere for a creepy old man to try some mad-scientist shit in order to improve on what God still clearly hasn't perfected. From toddler to geezer, Gray and Brown literally place us inside a mouth punished with caramel apples, fistfights, and painful dental visits. However, their protagonist-and also somewhat surreptitiously the antagonist-must not have gotten my dentist's memo because he makes it his life goal to craft the perfect set. Like me, filmmakers Daniel Gray and Tom Brown also have a love/hate relationship with teeth-so much so that they made a haunting and beautifully animated film about it named teeth.
