Life Cycle




You know the old saying "the more things change, the more they stay the same". I've been feeling that way a lot lately. It's not so much that things don't change, it's that most change is so gradual and incremental we hardly ever see it's effects until long after it has happened. The hardest part about change is the small day to day cycles we constantly are trying to program or unprogram in our routines. Through constant analysis and retooling of the little things we do each day, real change happens.

It's Official


A few days ago I received this piece of junk mail. I think receiving junk mail for your start up business makes you official. It's cheezy but I liked it so much I hung it in the office. It's my only signage for the time being.

Staying Busy

Pedalmation.com is almost ready for the relaunch, finished a scene for Kirby today and I just posted an updated reel to my vimeo site. All positives, but it also means I've been working less and have had more free time. Good for me, bad for the bank account. All is well though, picking up small jobs here and there. Staying positive and optimistic.

Here's a shoe!

what's going on

What a busy summer. Things here at the studio have been productive. Kirby is still slowly coming together. Just six more scenes and all the animation will be done. I'll still have to figure out the backgrounds and add more detail to a lot of the drawings. The end is in sight however.

Until then check out this student film I mentioned in a blog post some time ago. It's called Slim Picking Fat Chances and it's great. It has an old warner brothers animation feel with some fresh witty humor.
