The Eternal Sadness

This is a quick short I did at work during our free animation day last monday.

Tally Hall music video

I recently worked on a music video for Tally Hall (the band that does the Happy Monster Band songs along with their own stuff-they're good!). It was directed by Steve Loter and Dave Gerhard did animation with me.



Cartoon Brew posted about it this week too: http://www.cartoonbrew.com/music-videos/hidden-in-the-sand.html#comments

'Appy New Yar!

Here's a painting I did recently. Acrylic and marker on board.

robot uprising!

So Titmouse decided to have a robot uprising and hike it down sunset protesting humanity. We made it all the way to the cnn building and then turned around for robot lunch and beer at the cat and fiddle. Down with humans!

Hey! Here's a link to a commercial spot I worked on recently at titmouse:

I got to design a lot of the characters along with Pam Friend and then animated the cartoony bits. Tony Andrade helped with cleanup and color. I don't really know what the heck they are, but they're kinda cute and bubbly, eh?

Happy Day!

So I'm actually 3 days late in posting this but, Josh and I got engaged on Sunday!! Hurray!!! This is us at Glacier Point in Yosemite where he proposed. AMAZING view, what a perfect day. Anyway, just wanted to share the news! Exclamation points everwhere!

His name's not "Quicky" anymore.

Helloooo again! I've been seeing a lot of nesquik billboards here around hollywood and they keep reminding me that i need to post the spots i worked on to this here bloggy thing. The top one has been airing on tv and the bottom one is a spot done solely for subways. If you haven't seen one of these before it's pretty cool. Imagine sitting on a subway train, facing the tunnel wall. On the wall is a looooooong stretch of still images lit from behind and as you move by them in the train, the animation plays. This one was taken in NYC but i think it's going to show up eventually in LA, DC, and Boston. I did the animation (flash) and Jan Naylor did cleanup (also flash). And yes, I drank chocolate milk while doing these, although I do miss the containers with the tin pop top lids.

The Chihuahua Piper

On Valentine's Day, everyone at Titmouse got a full day to animate anything we wanted to, either going solo or gathering up a group. Each project was rounded up and edited together and we watched them all the next day. Super cool! So here is my little one-day animation.

Teenie!

Josh and I got a doggy this weekend! She's awesome. I loff her.
