Biz Markie Cartoon

This was a one off that we produced for Biz. The idea was for an ongoing flash comic that would appear on his website. The premise was pretty basic, in that, it's a record hunting caper. The great thing about Flash is we were able to add sound and simple interactivity.

Soon after, the Biz site came into disrepair, and, the series ended there. This was done in a similar style to an animated video we'd produced a few years earlier. A lot of the same characatures and backgrounds were recycled.

Primer

I just came across this again. I first saw it a couple of years back, and it had blown me away. It's especially recommended for fans of really heady science fiction.




The plot involves some garage space engineers who accidentally invent a device that transports small objects, 8 hours back in time. When they figure out how to transport humans (themselves), all hell breaks loose.

The director, Shane Caruth, reportedly made this for like 15 thousand. It was huge hit at Sundance when it was released,but, didn't see a wide distribution unfortunately.

Quiznos Ad

This was made for an online ad contest, this being used as an example. We made sandwich puppets, and dressed up some vegetables, and shot it in about an hour. And that's my hand as sandwich #2!

The Most Powerful Colors On The Web

A great graph here (big fan of graphs lately) demonstrating the colors schemes of some of the most ubiquitous presences on the web. Most of which I'm sure we're all familiar with. Looks like blue's winning! (and look how much Disney's resembles the U.S.S.R!)
