pay attention

The basement is cold, and the radio goes on and on. The crisp white paper in the typewriter is blank. Years ago Jackson bought himself a inexpensive manual typewriter "Just to pound on, and see what happens." All his friends said "cool." A few weeks after the purchase the typewriter was on the floor next to Jackson's seldom used desk. It is just big enough to stick out one quarter of an inch past the desk. Just enough o catch Jackson's little toe when he is not paying attention. Which is often.

Harold and the Worms

In the end Harold became friends with the worms at the bottom of the pit. Their offerings of food, while meager in proportion, soon became enough for Harold to live on. The damp quiet and fleshy soil which was the entirety of the worms world became Harold's world. In time the darkness faded and Harold could identify the worms by their rings which glistened and danced in the light from the glow worms. The worms befriended Harold, and Harold considered the fat one as one of his closest friends. the fat one, Jingy, had a young sister, and soon the marriage would bind Harold to the worms forever.

Still Alive

I am still alive. All my time is being sucked dry by a fun thing called JAVA. The headaches seem to be increasing, and time dwindling.

I am not a programer, this I have learned in this class.

Hopefully, I can get back to posting after this semester, when most of this JAVA stuff is done.

Hopes and Dreams

No time for pictures! Sad days!

Met Scott McCloud onhis world wide tour of the world. He is promoting his new book: Making Comics. It would be great to do a comic. I think I have ideas for it but my life is ruled by all the crap that I have to deal with- Like JAVA. Man I hate that stuff.

More soon.

OAT BOY!
OAT BOY!
OAT BOY!

Here is a early drawing of Oat Boy. Created when a synthetic soul escapes from Neeno 7's lab table and hides in a bowl of warm oatmeal.

In the film he is voiced by my 5 year old daughter, Emilia. She is waiting for the sequel...

It is the Cell Way- why do you think there are so many more of them then us? We are hopelessly out numbered! I can feel them all around me! Help!

Meanwhile, The great film experience known as Skull and Bunny is steamrolling through preproduction. With any luck the final script will be done by the end of the week. And then on to story boards.

Joe is currently modeling Skull, a cute little monkey. Soon it will be Bunny's turn.

Ignacio is also hip deep in Maya learning everything that needs to be known about stretchy rigs,

Soon I will get some pics of Skull and Bunny up.

I Like Monkeys!
Coming soon, more pictures and sketches of all kinds of things. Stuff from "Skull and Monkey," "The Chronicles Of Neeno," and another project inthe back of my min," Metamorphosis." I am working on a bunch of different stuff, so we will see what rises to the surface.

CONGRADULATIONS

Congadulations to Sarah Meyer, a old friend from Celebrity Deathmatch, The PJs, and Phantom Investigators. She won a Emmy for her animation on the TV show Robot Chicken.

Fantastic Job!

Mission Statement

This is the place for thought and more thought. Most issues will I will be dealing with has to do with animation and cartoons. In most cases my cartoons.

I have been a animator on television shows "Celebrity Deathmatch," "PJs," "Phantom Investigators," and "The Little People." Stop Motion animation has always been a fantastic art form.





Currently, I am about to start my 2nd year ar the Rochester Institute of Technology. Working on my Masters degree in Computer Animation. I have been able to apply everything I have learned while a Stop Motion animator to Computer Animation. Curently I am working with a small group of artists to produce a short animated film I will talk about untill everyone is completely sick of it.
