work in progress:

doing some motion work in after effects. i’ll have to remember to misplace more of my linked files, the texture layer doesn’t seem to mind.

ao and i just returned from a lovely trip to the dominican republic. per usual, i brought along both my large and small sketchbooks, some pens, and water color set really just to add weight to my bag. there were some terribly boring doodles from the plane ride (not shown) and ONE drawing of the beach (shown). my vacation expectation is to keep some kind of travel journal/sketchbook of about one page per day, yup.
final vacation tally
drawings made: 1
books read: 1.5
beers consumed: yum



sorry model, your head got cropped off when i realized that i didn’t like how wildly out of proportion i drew you. i blame pre-figure drawing bourbon on an empty stomach.


youtube users are now uploading one hour of video per second.
wait, huh? every 1 second (tick), an entire hour of video gets uploaded. wow.
working with the lovely ben tricklebank (founder, ceo and dog walker of punk & butler), i created the illustrations for www.onehourpersecond.com and the accompanying promotional video. overall, a wonderful breakneck project for the fine people at youtube and google.
