Space Stallions
I wish this would become a real cartoon but I think it’s just a film project. Either way you have to watch. It’s an homage to 80′s cartoons like Silverhawks (but with horses!) and She-ra (because the main female lead is dressed similarly). ...continue reading
Fubiz Animation Awards
One of my favorite blogs on all things design is French blog Fubiz. Seems like they are going to be giving out some awards in different design-related categories because today I came across in my rss feed the post about their animation nominations. Check out their awesome selection of animations and vote! Fubiz Awards – ...continue reading
Animation Round-up vol 8
I just finished watching the entire Star Wars Uncut: Director’s Cut, which I highly recommend you watch with some friends and some beers. If you don’t know what that is, here’s the short short version: Someone dissected the entire first Star Wars movie (ep IV) into 15 seconds bits. Then asked the world (via the ...continue reading
Fox Retro promo
Check out this awesome promo video for “Fox Retro”, a block of programming (or maybe a channel) for Fox Italy. They re-imagined a bunch of 80′s shows in to 8-bit video games. So amazing! (I’ll forgive the fact that it’s FOX..this time) ...continue reading
New York Comic-Con 2011
Yeah yeah I know I’m like a week late on posting my NYCC pic. I’ve been busy. NYCC was a blast! It does feel like it’s outgrowing the Javitz center space but I have no idea where else in NYC it could be. Comic-Cons are the best. I love that Cosplaying has become such a ...continue reading

Animation Round-up vol 6
My friend David Levy, whom I would call extremely knowledgeable on the subject (more on that in a moment), once told me that the use of the word animation in the title of these posts was not entirely correct. Animation is the rapid display of a sequence of images of 2-D or 3-D artwork or ...continue reading

Too Art for TV 5 [NYC]
As you can see from my posts, I love animation. I also love art. And what’s even better is when animators creatively express themselves outside of the commercial film/television realm. So if you’re in the NYC area (or you’ll be coming soon), then be sure to come check out one of my favorite art gallery ...continue reading
Animation Round-up Vol 5
A lot of black & white animation for this round-up. Didn’t plan it that way, it just happened. One of them is NSFW (One Minute Puberty) but it goes by so fast that I’m sure no one will notice. The last one is actually a reel of a well known animator. While I usually like ...continue reading
