I realized just now I never posted about it, but my team won (well, tied for) 2nd place in FJORG! You can watch our movie here:


The magical Ms. Olivares provided the art direction for our short, so I can’t take credit at all for how awesome it looks. I moved things around in Maya. And provided moral and emotional support.

If you’d like to find out more about FJORG, here’s a documentary created by Mike Shu, affectionately known as The Steadicam Guy. I think it sums up the experience nicely. (AND LOOK WE’RE IN THE THUMBNAIL IMAGE!)

HOLY COW. Summer has flown by!

Monday marks the beginning of FJORG!, the crazy animation viking death-match I’m super excited to be able to be a part of:

“Sixteen three-person teams of CG animators from around the world forgo sleep and resist several staged distractions for 32 non-stop hours to produce the best character-driven animation in the universe.”

If anyone out there will be at Siggraph, please stop by the fishtank and cheer us on — Miss Lindsey Olivares and the website-less Hunter Brown are a trifecta of animation magic (we hope)!

Also, my film will be showing/competing at the San Diego Asian Film Festival in October this year. I may or may not be down there to see it play, but hooray!
