Show & Tell

fan-appreciation

Free beer! You love that right? Well thanks to our friends Chuck & Jake, you can have some tomorrow after work from 6-8 at our studio (RSVP here). They’re releasing some new clothes in their winter line, so wanted to show em’ off and meet new folks. Come on by to meet them, check out some of their clothes, and to tell Cody he needs to clean up his beard.

What if children’s drawings were drawn more realistically? That’s the question that Dave DeVries answered when he created The Monster Engine. Sadly, the Monster Engine site is down, presumably from all of the traffic it is getting, but after the jump you can see more crazy cool examples of this work.

A wonderfully produced video about a wonderfully produced portrait made of 3.2 million individually hand-drawn dots. I can only imagine the hand cramp this guy had when he was finished.

Most people attribute the first 3-dimensional feature length films to John Lasseter and Steve Jobs’ Pixar. The reality of the history though is that Walt Disney developed a system to add depth to movies far before they were in business together, which is why December 5th, 1901 is a special day. Happy Birthday Walt Disney! Thanks for all of the great movie making and happiness you added to so many children’s lives.

I’m not sure why anyone would need to have the history of the typewriter recited, but Ignacio Uriarte directed this film doing just that with Michael Winslow of Police Academy fame.


Note Cards

Apparently you've read through all of the note cards. Good work.
