Riding Shotgun Debuts

Back in February, I was moved to a new department at work, the TP Digital department.
My new title became “Senior Motion Graphics Artist” and I am now responsible for creating what Tokyopop calls iManga.
Trying to describe what I do to people has been difficult and confusing for all parties involved.
Well, now you can go to Myspace and see for yourself.

Starting yesterday, TOKYOPOP TV debuted on Myspace TV.
Every Tuesday for the next four weeks, you can see my work on the Riding Shotgun iManga. I was (and still am) responsible for the direction and animation of each episode.
The fantastic coloring was all handled by my assistant, Kimie.
The story is a direct adaptation of the comic by Nathaniel Bowden and Tracy Yardley.

On Thursdays, be sure to check out the Bizenghast iManga done by my coworker, Kris.
He does some really nice stuff with the imagery of the series.

On Mondays and Wednesdays, you can see 3D CG versions of I Luv Halloween and A Midnight Opera. These were created in Hong Kong by a company named Menfound.

Enjoy (or don’t if that’s your preferences, punks).

Revver Test-drive

I recently found out about Revver. Think YouTube, but less ugly. They also attach short ads to the end of videos you upload. Profits from the views are shared with the uploader. It sounds nice so I decided to give it a try. I’ve uploaded an old Flash cartoon of mine. If I like the way it works out, I’ll add more content in the future. Any of you other video folks might want to give it a try as well.

And the Angels Sing!!!

Rejoice!
What the internet world has been awaiting for a decade has come to pass.
You can all finally watch the cult favorite video from 1995:
The Adventures of Jimmy Peckerwood and Breakfast Sausage

It has been recut and “remastered” so it can assault the senses of a new generation.
Never fear, it is still as aesthetically ugly as that cold day in December when it was born.
