One more for the road.

Looking wistful? Sad?

Cheerios "How It Works!" spot

This was a spot I worked on almost three years ago to-the-day of this posting for Pat-Man Studio. I believe it aired a handful of times as a 30-second cut-down version. This is the longer 60 second version.



I handled animation with another animator named Mike Luzzi, some storyboard revision, and edit. This was done in Flash and After Effects. The designs were a throwback to the 50's Cheerios Kid complete with the off-register line work, and was pretty fun to work with.

I'll find it.

Kyle's Animator Pencil

I had a few min to doodle up some sketches with Kyle's new Animator Pencil that he released yesterday. I was pretty stoked about it. One of its features is that you can tilt the stylus to simulate some shading techniques like one could with a real pencil. This feature didn't seem to work as well as I had hoped. The tilt range was minimal and the surface area of the brush did not really increase that much. I also felt as if I needed to press pretty hard on the tablet to get it to shade as much as I needed it to. Still, the Animator Pencil gives a nice and fluid line for fast sketching. It might be my new go-to brush for drawing in Photoshop. Head on over to Kyle's Gumroad page and give the guy a few bucks for it. Its worth it!

Office Boss #2

Another miserable, poorly dressed office boss. Probably been doing his job for way too long, and wants to quit but can't because he has no retirement plan.

When in doubt, Contra.

More old sketches that I finished up a bit.

Surly

An oldie

I think I once wrote on here that I have a bunch of PSD's sitting on my Desktop in a folder that are all half-baked. I hope to sift through them and finish some of them off. This is one of them.
