After realizing that yellow sticky note "to do" lists were consuming his life, animation filmmaker Jeff Chiba Stearns decided to visually self-reflect on his filmmaking journey by animating on the same sticky notes that caused him to ignore major world events for the last nine years. Animation meditation is blended with image, text, and an original musical score by Genevieve Vincent through the creation of a classically animated experimental film that was drawn straight ahead with only a black ink pen on over 2300 yellow sticky notes.

Nom : Jeff Chiba Stearns
Jeff Chiba Stearns is an award-winning Canadian independent animation filmmaker, writer and artist, born in British Columbia, Canada, of Japanese and European heritage. Using various formats like animation, documentary, and experimental, Jeff enjoys creating works aimed at children and adults that combine different philosophical elements together to create humorous, inspiring, and entertaining stories. After graduating from the Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design with a Degree in Film Animation in 2001, he founded Meditating Bunny Studio. His short animated films have screened at film festivals around the world and have been broadcast in Canada by the CBC. In 2005, with a pre-license fee from the CBC, he completed the award-winning classically animated film, "What Are You Anyways?" The film is an exploration of his life growing up half-Japanese and half-Caucasian in a small Canadian town, and how he dealt with being typecast as a minority and overcame his struggle for self-identity.

After creating "What Are You Anyways?" the first animated film that explores Hapa issues, he has become an international spokesperson for mixed-race advocacy. The film has screened at over 40 international film festivals and won 7 awards including the award for Best Animated Short Subject at the 2006 Canadian Awards for Electronic and Animated Arts. Currently he is working on a documentary entitled, One Big Hapa Family. He has also written articles for national publications and lectured around the world at conferences and universities about mixed-race identity, cultural awareness, animation process, and Hapa issues. His latest award-winning film, Yellow Sticky Notes, winner of the 2008 CAEAA for Best Animated Short Subject and Golden Sheaf for Best Animation at the 2008 Yorkton Short Film and Video Festival, was animated with just a black pen on over 2300 sticky notes and is currently traveling on the international film festival circuit. On top of filmmaking, Jeff is also a college animation instructor and the Vice President of the Okanagan Film Festival.
