New SuperNews episode, "State of the Union"!

Here's a still from a deleted scene: (UPDATE: Image no longer available)

I drew the Jim Webb caricature and put together the set. There was also another deleted scene with a caricature of a certain other important Democratic figure that I did... but I don't think I'm supposed to talk about that one, haha.

New SuperNews episode, "Revenge of the Nerds" style! I did the music for this one too! Watch "Revenge of the Democratic Nerds".

I added some new wallpapers to my DOWNLOADS section. The new ones are from "Carol of the Robots", "On Water", and an old one that I never posted from "Storybook 2: A Special Visit From Gel"

Old clay animation with a new song! "5 Busy Shapes"

I can't believe it's been 10 years, wow. André (aka "gel") and I animated this for an elementary school in 1997. There was something magical about an auditorium full of elementary school kids laughing and cheering for our movie!

This week, I re-recorded the narration and voices and composed a new song for it! (The song actually features a percussion section which includes glass bottles and forks along with slapping my knee and the back of the guitar!)

Anyone see Bush's Iraq speech? Well we whipped out this episode about it in one day! "Iraq Speech Outtakes".

Ok so not only did I re-do the way the news works internally, but I put it on the main page, something I've been contemplating for a long time. I hate to clutter the page and I liked that when you got here you just had to choose where you wanted to go right away, but maybe this will save some clicking.

I can now add pictures easily, so here's a shot from a stop-motion music video I'm working on (off and on)!

Happy new year! My animation "Carol of the Robots" was voted the #1 holiday submission on Newgrounds.com! Thanks for all of the votes!

I'm thinking of revamping this news section. I thought I was all clever when I figured out how to type into a text file on my server which would automatically appear on this page... but I have to type out the code for everything like hyperlinks, even line breaks. I want to start adding photos and multimedia and the process right now is so daunting it really keeps me from wanting to post all the time (for all 3 people who are reading this, haha.) Anyway, we'll see.

Man, I really suck at keeping the news up to date. If you are reading this and you aren't on my mailing list yet, just shoot me an email and I'll add you. That way you'll know of the latest projects and SuperNews episodes!

I just finished my musical-robot animation entitled "Carol of the Robots"!

We also just finished our Christmas SuperNews episode "Christmas Wars".

On Tuesday, animation pioneer Joseph Barbera (of "Hanna-Barbera") passed away, and Current TV is airing a story about him. SuperNews creator Josh Faure-Brac and I appear in the segment and share our thoughts on his legacy, so be sure to look out for it! You can always see what's coming up on Current here: current.com/currenttv.
