Lots of good people and cute stuff :) A few examples below...

Sketchbot II Custom Show @ Munkyking LA Nov 2010

American Eagle Kids Animations - October 2010

Again working through Dorian Orange for American Eagle Outfitters kids. This time working on some adorable Yeti character animations as well as our old friend the little Blue Bird. It's a snowboarding/snowball fighting/hat sharing ad for an AE Kids Winter Sale. My role was to do a redesign of the AE Yeti character and a new treatment of the Blue Bird to fit the paper cut out style of this particular ad. I also completed a list of gesture animations of both the bird and the Yeti. The awesome animators at Dorian compiled my bits and created the rest of the ad.

American Eagle Kids Animations - September 2010

I was working for a spot called Dorian Orange. This job for them was for American Eagle Outfitters Kids in conjunction with some sort of literacy campaign. I did several spot animations of the little bluebird logo which were to be compiled and shown on one of the megatron screens in Times Square. Sadly I don't have the compiled animation nor do I have the video of the ad playing in Times Square (FAIL!) I'd love to share the animations with you but Blogger is being a bugger. I'll try again later...

PulpO
Eight-person exhibition

Opening reception - Friday, August 6th 2010, 6pm-9:30pm

RUNS: August 6th through August 30th, 2010

at Tulum Gallery, 244 North 6th St., Williamsburg, NY 11211


[Tulum Gallery - Williamsburg, NY]
Tulum Gallery is proud to present PulpO, an eight-person group show of new drawings and paintings by New York-based artists in animation, illustration, and the fine arts. Showing together in a variety of styles and media, these eight artists draw from their backgrounds as representational artists to cultivate narratives influenced by pulp and comic-art traditions. Themes like science fiction, war, horror, the occult, exploitative stories, sensational iconography, and adventure are interpreted by this group with surreal, whimsical, and abstract flourishes.

The manic and comically apocalyptic drawings of Christy Karacas, co-creator of Adult Swim’s Superjail!, will be featured for the first time on a smaller scale in PulpO. Devin Clark, the creator of Comedy Central’s Ugly Americans, will showcase his obsessive and tangled “hair” paintings. PulpO will also feature the painted pop culture musings of Jackson Publick, creator of Adult Swim’s Venture Bros., the sinister characters of illustration painter Kelly Denato’s storybook-acrylics, the playful “multiplane” objects of animation designer Chris George, and more.
