Philadelphia based filmmaker Gary San Angel and animator Rocky Kev combine both documentary and story board animation in 'The KoAloha Ukulele Story'. The film is based on the true story of Alvin Okami, the famous “Renaissance Man” of Hawaii who is an acclaimed inventor, musician, composer, and spontaneous idea man. Alvin takes us down memory lane with his local 'Talk Story' approach and shares with us his heartfelt story of how he started KoAloha from a bankrupt plastics and manufacturing company to being one of the first ukulele makers to create a playable, tunable, miniature ukulele.

Love the art. It was great to see the story come to life in animated form. Don't think you could have gotten the same effect by just using footage of Alvin speaking himself.
