Best month of the year and the month of superior beings; I turned 24, Grigor had his birthday, and we got quite a surprise when his niece was born on the same day as mine!!

Also, I see that comment spam issue has spread like wildfire around here, so I had to go and hide a ton of comments...sorry about that guys. Hate those things.

That project I worked on intensively before Christmas was three Trix Rabbit webisodes, which you can watch at [link] after you, erm...you know...buy their yogurt and get the secret passwords to do so! (Sorry, can't spill them beans for you!)

I worked art direction for the three 7 min cartoons, which were made in about 3 months. That's right: 21 minutes of animation in THREE months. We had to have two shifts going on for this just to get it done on time. Thank goodness our only job was the animation/art/comps, as the SFX and story are done by our agency and out of house.

Most of the BGs in "The Trixters" short are mine, as are half in "Ride 'Em Rabbit". I was so overwhelmed with direction and BG work that I couldn't do any in the third short and we had to outsource all of them to others. Which was fine by me, seeing as I had also worked on character re-design, costume design, as well as quite a bit of prop and extra art. We had a great team put these together though, and as cheesy as they are, was pretty fun to work on. Definitely got lots of digital painting practice down!

Btw, it looks like flash, but was actually animated all in Toon Boom Harmony (well....I diiiid manage to sneak in some flash work here and there when I had to work at home and couldn't understand harmony AT ALL!).
