Poster

For those animators who don't like Theodore Ushev's lovely OIAF poster, I've redesigned it in a way that is more animationy and apparently, therefore, better.

My exhibition pieces are done.
I'll take them in tomorrow for mounting (not sexy mounting).

The Thing In The Distance

The Thing In The Distance is finally finished.
I'm very proud of this film.
It's all paranoia and obsession.
Mark Vitelli has come on board and did a stellar job of the audio, and once again Matt Saxton is featured, this time on electric guitar.
I sure hope to get some feedback from folks so let me know your thoughts via whatever communication platform suits you best.

Brothers In Arms is playing at KLIK! and has been nominated for a thingy. Also in the festival are a bunch of your favorite New York Film makers : ) Hooray for us. http://www.klikamsterdam.nl/selection2009.html

To Tell A Long Story Short

The last month or so has been incredibly trying.
I spent some time on a badly organised job, which led to mayhem, madness and a lot of tension.
I was going to spend some time writing a straight forward account of what went wrong, the place of artists in the workplace, etc etc, and then balance that out with some commentary about the terrific bunch of talented artists I was lucky enough to be working with.
Of course I've sat down to write it and although it's only a week ago, it's almost forgotten about (at least in my mind...).
And besides which, I stumbled across these other blog posts which sum up most of my feelings about the last month anyway.
Post 01 from the blog of Richard O'Connor (an animation blog that all animationy folks should take a peek at regularly).
Post 02 from the blog of Joey Caps, one of the nicest guys you'll ever find in our industry (and remarkably tolerant, too).

New York Television Festival

I am happy to crow that my Boxhead and Roundhead cartoons are in competition at the New York Television Festival in the Independent Producers Competition. You can see the little trailer I made here, if you care to:

Deceptive Deceptions

My pal Dan Meth made this slice of fried gold.
Some other talented fellow did the vo - he seems like a very talented chap indeed...
