Touch me, I'm sick.

I feel sick today.
My hypochondria is killing me.

From the files

So, work's been pretty nice lately at the studio. The bosses got a couple of exciting projects down on the horizon, including one that's very personal and dear to me.

For your time, here are some images I did for a job that, unfortunately, didn't see the light of day. Poor drawings. Crying in the darkness. Good thing we got them blog thingies.

Cheers and out.

Great games of my wonder years

Dig yourself! Lazarus, dig yourself!



As seen here.

Run, Monster, Run

Oh, no! The creature from the blog header...it's alive and wearing underwear!

Run cycle for you lives!





In case you're wondering, it's just a quick and dirty Flash cycle I did tonight. It's all out of whack, but I gotta sleep now. Runs are fun. Cheers.

Anima Moondi!

So, really great news this past weekend. My short "Papercut" got picked as part of the competitive selection in the Anima Mundi festival.

The reason why I'm so excited is that Anima Mundi is the largest animation festival in Brasil (and, if I'm not mistaken, the whole of Latin America too). And, being a Brazilian myself, this is the festival I've been attending for years. It's where I got exposed to the work of some of my favorite animators. Heck, it's where I first saw "Au Bout Du Monde", one of the best shorts ever made.

I'm really happy and more than humbled to be among all these super-talented animation heroes of mine. Makes me almost want to hide my silly little student film. But hey, they got free cocktails. So I'm definitely attending.


Edit:
many, many thanks for Jeff at the VFS Blog for the plug. Just awesome.


And now: Smurfs.

Quick snack

Boredom + 1/2 hour to spare + roomate watching Fast and Furious 4 (4 Fast 4 Furious?) = quick flash nonsense.

New old stuff

Finally finished some freelancing. So, hooray for a little extra time. First, I'm going back to rework some pitches with my good pal Graham. Second, I can do some fun stuff just for kicks.

Tonight, I cleaned up on Flash and composited on After FX an old Vancouver Film School assignment. Mainly because the pencil test I had was way too dark, so you could barely see the animation. But also because it's always fun to have something done quickly.

And because sharing is good, here's my little waterdrop.

Sing-along gang

So, I'm going to a karaoke with some friends and it made me do this little doodle of yours truly. I wasn't too kind.

Cheers, folks.
