GETTING PAID TO MAKE FUNNY DRAWINGS

I was fortunate enough recently to have Cartoon Network give me and my good buddy Joey Giardina the greenlight to make our own short for them. The guys over there have been incredible from day one, and I'm honored to be able to continue my career with them. The short is going to be a 7 minute pilot for what was once 'Big Foot and Gnome' and now tentativley titled 'Manny and Khan'.

I also just put the finishing touches on a freelance animated short I'd been working on for the past month, I'll post that real soon.

HOLY CRAP I'M ON YOUTUBE!

So somebody just emailed me a link to an animation I did back in High School for my senior project. This is both really awesome and embarrassing at the same time. I'm stoked that someone would actually take the time to put this up, I don't even know who it is, but thanks; You've made my week!
Embarrassing however because it's really shitty. I made this 3 years ago, in about the span of 1 month, and (despite the crap-fest it is) I'm actually pretty proud of it. I got to make fun of a whole bunch of people from my high school, they were all cool with it... i think. I got a lot of them to actually do their own voices.



Fun Fact; While imitating a scene from my animation, some kid actually pulled one of the showers in the science lab, flooding the classroom. So I guess cartoons really do have a bad influence on kids.
