JibJab eCard

A while back I animated a little eCard for the great guys over in Jibjab. It's being launched on their site this week and you can watch it here. They were also nice enough to feature me on their blog which you can see here.

Annecy 2012

I was delighted to find out today that my short film "A Different Perspective" is part of the official selection for Annecy this year. I had already booked flights and accommodation to attend the festival in June but today's news now makes the trip that little bit more exciting!

Here's a little teaser/trailer for the film, it's not easy making a trailer for a 2 minute film!

Mythical Bikers

A couple of illustrations from another blog I was involved in that I thought I'd recycle here.

Annie!

Another award for "The Amazing World of Gumball", and probably the best yet!
Gumball won the Annie for best animated television production, Congrats to everyone who worked on it!

Smear Drawings

I always enjoy incorporating "smear" drawings into my animations and I'm always fascinated when I see other peoples approaches when using this technique in their work so I thought I'd do a post featuring some of the smear drawings I created for previous projects.

Cartoon Brew

Nice little plug from Cartoon Brew today, nice way to start the week!

Some more animation from the short film I'm working on. The animations pretty much finished so I've started with the compositing and should get around to the sound soon enough.

Heres a few design explorations for a short film idea. I'm going to try make it over the next few months. Not sure which one I prefer, feedback welcome!

Birthday Paintings

A few paintings I did for friends birthdays. They're for three separate birthdays that happen to fall in around the same week so I had to get busy with the paints!

Gumball

Here's a clip from the show I worked on during my time at Boulder Media, it's called " The Amazing World of Gumball" I think it airs in either April or May.

Just for fun
