Doodle: Sad Keanu

So I have been doing a lot of drawing as of late. The madison assignment came at the perfect time, as I feel I have begun refining my abilities. I was even commissioned to design a few pieces for a friends apartment (pictures when I have them). This is an homage to the internet meme 'Sad Keanu' which I'm borderline obsessed with.

Attack Of The Blue Goo! / Blue Goo Strikes Back!

Eric Miller and I made this using a LEGO branded stop motion animation camera from my job. I quickly fell in love with stop motion animation, though these fourteen seconds of animation took well over four hours to produce. Respect to all animators out there. Keep fighting the good fight.

Merch Guy

Back in 2004, when I had a mohawk, I designed merch for a band called Madison.

Well, I actually did more than design merch for them. I tour managed them, I videotaped their shows, I sold merch, I took photos. I stage managed, all for free. I would feel slighted if they weren't the reason I began touring in the first place. Actually, I owe them. They are the reason I travelled the world, met the people I did, and had the best five years of my life.
I got a call from their ex-bass player Jonathan, who now plays in Meg & Dia, and he told me they are reuniting for a show on July 31st. In an attempt to make my existence more poetic I asked if I could design a piece of merch for the show, and luckily he obliged. This is an homage to one of my more popular designs for them. I am also designing a poster for the show. I'll post that as soon as it's done.

Masterpiece

Anyone who saw Toy Story 3 this weekend can vouch for how amazing the short "Day & Night" was. I might go as far as to say it was the best PIxar Short I've seen. See Toy Story 3 in theaters, in 3D, and even if you don't like the movie (you will, don't worry) you will at least love this.
