As most of you may, (or may not) know, recently I was asked to be a News Correspondent on Frederator’s Channel Frederator by Fred Seibert himself.
With Channel Frederator, we will be serving you dishes of the most current Animation news & the hottest interviews with animators/artists from all nooks, crannies, and parts of the globe.
Mainstream, commercial, indy, folksy, outsider, chicken scratch, you name it.
Doesn’t matter if you’re a Hollywood Bigshot, still in school, or a bearded hermit off in the woods animating rocks and leaves (like me) for the hell of it…
We want your story!
It’s all about the frame by frame love baby, the love.
Help spread the Love people!
If you, or someone you know, would like to be featured or interviewed on Channel Frederator, drop us an email at:
promotecartoons (at) gmail(dot)com
As always, to suscribe to CH.Fred, go to: http://www.channelfrederator.com/ or you can also go to ITunes.

Re-Animation: An Evening W/ Lewis Klahr

October 13th, 2006

I know I’m jumping the gun on this one, but I found out about it in the nick of time.
One of my favorite film-makers Lewis Klahr is having a few films screened October 16th, 2006 at Calart’s Redcat in Los Angeles, 8:00pm.
I was able to sit in (unofficially) on a few of his classes at Calarts during my time there, when I should’ve been in my animation classes.Needless to say, I learned alot from that time spent ditching those classes.
(I don’t recommend this behavior for anyone, but it always worked for me.)

Action Team Fred Go Ultra Ritmo!!!

October 10th, 2006

So I was just zoning out, drawing, nothing in particular, til this popped in my head. The Team Fred Robot, Version Jeaux point Style.
The tighty whitey undies are a nod and tip of the hat to Eric Homan, who somewhat fueled that idea. As it turns out I’m meeting Fred (Seibert) this Thursday for the first time, and Eric suggested that I wear my underwear on the outside of my pants.
I also can’t forget the time that, while in worry mode over one of my first pitches to Team Fred, Eric told me I should dress up like a princess and make sure my tiara was set in place.
That Eric. He sure has a great sense of humor!
Looking forward to meeting you Fred.
See you guys Thursday!

Howdy y’all!
Just wanted to drop a quick line letting you know I am Back in Sunny, Smoggy Cali-for-nigh-yay! Yee-Haw!
Breathe it in deep lads & lassies! Can you feel that?
That’s the sting of Love and Cartoons in the air!
Ahhhh.
Much better.
I’ll write more later.
Pinkie-Swear!
For now, I shall retire to my bat-cave and pop on a Little Peter Sellers Action in The Party!
Nitey-Nite y’all.
