Still Life is a short film I made over the last year or so. I’m pretty happy with how it turned out and love the xylophone music Heather made for it. 😛
ZomBerry Commercial
I’ve finally finished that ZomBerry Commercial I’ve been working on!

For some reason it seemed like a good idea to make a ZomBerry Box so here we are. The solvable maze on the back was neat to work on as well as designing how the actual bits of cereal would look.

Here’s a test render of this ZomBerry character I’ve been messing around with using Lighting Boy Studio’s shader and Auto-Rig Pro. I figure the Thriller dance is probably as good of a rigging test as anything, right?

Some quick progress shots of the cat flip books I made last week. The animation was done in Blender using its Grease Pencil tool. Drawing with a mouse isn’t great so I used Astropad and an iPad to make drawing quite a bit easier. The pages were printed on a card stock by the old HP LaserJet printer my friend Keeley gave me a while ago. The holes were made using a screw punch and plain old string was used for the binding.
These were a lot of fun to make and I’m pretty excited to see what folks do with them. Heather said she was going to color hers — which will be neat to see. 🙂
Felt-tipped Marksman
Felt-tipped Marksman is a Flash animation I did about ten years ago. I assumed the files were lost forever when I didn’t see them on the old hard drive I was going through the other week. I was over the moon when I found them hiding in my Dropbox folder when I was tidying that up the other day! I really need to go through more of my junk drawer folders and see what other goodies are laying around.
Studiobots
This is a bit of a throwback. I was going through an old hard drive and found this animation I did while I was at Studiobanks. From what I remember this was used as a commercial/promo for Studiobanks that played at the ADDY Awards in 2008.
My bud Keeley Carrigan did all of the character designs which were apart of a t-shirt/sticker/mural branding thingie we were doing at the studio at the time. In our office’s foyer we had a huge vinyl decal made of his design that was really something to see.
A wooden background was actually a design element we used in all of the company’s branding. In fact, a wood background was used in almost every version of studiobanks.com that we made.
It was really neat seeing this again. I had a lot of fun working with Banks and all of those dudes for that chunk of my life.
