Oh wow! It's been a busy year. Let's catch up on animation, shall we?
In April 2014, I concepted, designed and animated this viral animation for Airborne.

May and June saw me working on a couple spots with Slanted Studios and Something Savage;
Adult Swim Singles 2014 and Adult Swim's X-Men:Days of Future Past promo.
(Incidentally, this isn't my first Adult Swim X-Men promo. I designed and animated characters for
X-men:First Class in 2011!)

Later in the year, I animated a couple spots for Goldfish crackers: here and here.

There's more but I'll show you the rest as I get my sticky little paws on them and get the go ahead!

I'm DYING with this news that Mad Men is bringing on Milton Glaser for the last season! Glaser is the progenitor of the iconic "I ♡ New York" design. https://gothamist.com/2014/03/07/mad_men_brings_on_milton_glaser_for.php

I was lucky enough to work on something for him through We Are Plus so long ago, it may as well have been the 60s! ...2007. I thought I'd share it with you!

Oh Hae! I got my nails done! With the endless winter weather, I needed a little pick me up! Also, I've added a few things to the site in the last weeks.

Animations for Mekorma: here.

A Knot Safe For Work (NSFW) Valentine's embroidery: here *blush*

And some digital portraits, for cards of various kinds: here.

See you when it thaws!

Great writeup of a recent job! I did 2D animation for this amazing 3D holiday card. There's also a making of video in which you can see the blurry side of my face and some animation in progress!

Too Art For TV 6 Opens in one week: Friday, November 9th, 6-10pm
at
Bunnycutlet Gallery 158 Roebling Street
Brooklyn, NY 11211

The show is open from November 9th, 2012 through December 14th, 2012.

Created and curated by Liz Artinian, Too Art For TV is a nearly annual art show that I've been lucky enough to be involved with in a variety of capacities through its history, from co-curator to wall spackler. It's an extremely special opportunity for those of us in the animation industry to show off what we might do if left to our own devices and I, for one, am very grateful for Liz's vision. This year, I have four pieces on display! Please come if you can!

The official press release offers a great description of the show and includes a flattering name check. Check it out here: https://bunnycutlet.com/2a4tv/2art6.html

I storyboarded, illustrated and animated this case study for Help! I Want to Save A Life!--Winner of the 2012 Grand Prix for Good and Two Gold Lions at Cannes Lions, as well as a White Pencil from D&AD. It's an amazing idea, making registering for Bone Marrow Donation a bit easier! With Lifelong Friendship Society.

I directed, illustrated and animated this music video for The Stars for Yo Gabba Gabba last fall. Be warned, the tune is really cute and catchy!
