Biography

Tommy Pallotta earned a Philosophy degree from the University of Texas at Austin. During his time at UT, he met Richard Linklater and began his film career as an actor and production assistant on Linklater's first film, Slacker (1991). After working on various films and commercials, Pallotta wrote, directed, and produced his debut film, The High Road (1997). He also produced several animated projects by Bob Sabiston, including Roadhead (1999), which won Best Animation at the Aspen Film Festival; a series of interstitials for MTV; Snack and Drink (1999), a three-minute short about an autistic child in a 7-Eleven, now part of the New York Museum of Modern Art's permanent collection; and Figures of Speech (2000), a series of interstitials for PBS. Pallotta combined his animation expertise with Richard Linklater on Waking Life (2001), the first independently financed and produced computer-animated feature, which received three Independent Spirit Award nominations, including Best Picture. He directed the first machinima-produced music video, In the Waiting Line (2003), using the Quake 3 video game animation engine, and the rotoscoped MTV "Breakthrough Video" Destiny (2002), both for the band Zero 7. Recognized by Microsoft Research and Development for his "penchant for innovation," Pallotta led an interactive project based on Jonathan Lethem's novel Amnesia Moon (2004), an experimental work not released publicly. He later reunited with Linklater to produce A Scanner Darkly (2006), adapted from Philip K. Dick's novel and starring Keanu Reeves.
