Fans of Phillip K. Dick's work, and his novels that made it to the big screen like Blade Runner, Total Recall, and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, will be pleased to know that production is underway on A Scanner Darkly. Phillip K. Dick is the master of cerebral storytelling, focusing on the mysteries of who we are and the limits of perceived reality.

The movie is employing computer assisted Rotoscoping, basically animation over live footage, much like the director, Peter Linklater's earlier film, Waking Life.

The production company is also in the process of seeking artists based in the Austin, TX area to work on the film. They want people who are skilled in line drawing and experienced with Flash programming.

If I recall correctly, Total Recall was the movie with Arnold Scharzenegger?
and I wanted to see Eternal Sunshine on the spotless mind when it came out but, never got the chance. I never knew those where based off books and from the same Author. I'd like to look into this.

I have seen Waking Life and it was a pretty heavy movie. The style in which it was presented help to convey some of the ideas I think but the content of the movie was just so overwhelming I don't think I was able to grasp the whole thing. Only bits and parts of it. but this looks like it would be a good deal. (O^-')>
