Starktoons Promo!



The fine ladies and gents over at Channel Frederator asked me if I wanted to do a 10 second promo. I said "Would I?!!" and made the shit out of one. (With the help Kathleen & Gang. Thanks Again!!)

SModcast.com

www.smodcast.com is now the spot to get the SMod. It is super cool. Easy to use and see which guests are on what episode. Plus my 2 FLS toons are on the site. How cool is that? It's an honor to be on the site.

What's that old saying? If you love something....give it...fuck....hold on....... Umm, If you do something out of love...you get love?

I just google searched to see if there was more....and behold!!

This one ran on Saturday October 24th, 09 in the Australian International.

Turducken: The Series Promo

3 birds, 1 hero....Turducken the series!

This is a promo I'm sending out all over the place with the Turducken series pitch!! WoooO!

From episode:" Now paging Dr.Turducken"

From episode:"Turducken goes to College"

From episode:" Major League Turducken"

If you wanna see Turducken The Series on the old boob tube throw some love on the YouTube comments for me and maybe I can grassroots this rascal into existence.

I've had some luck in the past with a Canadian TV network. They didn't want to take the series but wanted to play the short. That just wasn't good enough...

I want it all!!....like a guy who just put up his house at a Vegas table and is considering putting up his children as collateral.

So it's to the US with me and my pitch.

Ah yes...the US....where dreams come true....where cartoons are played 24 hours...and candy falls from the sky

CANDY!!!

For the Love of SMod 2

I love SModcast so much... I made another cartoon about it.

I did a limited animation of a excerpt from SModcast Episode 83: Aquatic Justice.

(I just shot the video of the sea in the opening credits this morning. A few blocks from my house.)

It of course stars our heroes Kevin Smith & Scott Mosier (Smosier Fish).

They go on a undersea adventure where they discover Sharks, Aquaman and Marijuana.

Nuff said.

Check it out on Youtube!

Bear-Horse.....IN 3D!!!

"Look away! It's hideous!!"

If you thought Bear-Horse ruled or sucked last time....... you are in for a treat!

Cause it will rule or suck once again in a new dimension. A third dimension. The sexiest dimension there is.

So get those 3d glasses ready this Friday the 23rd.

Turducken @ The Austin Film Festival 2009

Hey...hey....hey..........hey! ...what are you doing? I don't know what you're doing but you know what you should be doing? Going to the Austin film festival to see Turducken!!!!

Sure if you don't live there its super costly...but hey Turducken will be in HD. Worth it? Anyone? C'monnnn!!!

Friars Club Comedy Festival 2009

If all goes as planned (cross those fingers), I am getting flown to NY by the glorious Friars Club Comedy Festival to attend the festival and my screenings of Turducken.


Ravioli!? Holy Cannoli!!

This is sooooooooooo cool. The Coen brothers are going to be there!! I might even get to meet them, talk to them, quote their movies till they saunter away in disgust......

Me:
"Well, I don't want Fop, goddamn it! I'm a Dapper Dan man! "
Coens:
"(under breath)...... security!"

If it's like the other festivals I've been to, I get to go to any screenings and panels and such for free. Good deal! Cause these special events look .....spec-tacular!


Thursday
10:00 PM: Opening Night Party at the Friars Club, including a private reception with Joel and Ethan Coen at the Friars Club for VIP passholders.

Friday
12:00 PM: A private lunch with prominent Friars.

10:00 PM: Shorts Filmmaker Party -- a private party at the Friars Club with the filmmakers behind this year's lineup of shorts films.

Saturday
12:00 PM: A private lunch with the Funny Fockers panelists, including screenwriters of Night at the Museum & I Love You Man.

I'm a little low on the old casheeesh! So I'm staying at a hostel in Manhattan. I've never stayed at a hostel. My only experience with them is seeing the movie Hostel. I'm hoping when I stay at this NY hostel, rich people aren't going to pay elaborate sums to kill me.
Here's to hoping am I right!?? Plus a soft bed would be a distant second. Private shower third...but again being alive...#1 for sure..

Maybe I'll even win something! maybe? possibly? Why not me right?

Maybe I'll be able to meet someone who can help make "Turducken the Series" happen. A half hour of Turduckeny glory on TV. Let's do this!!




Turducken plays in the "Drop your shorts" program on Friday night and again as a trailer before the feature "Jesus People Film" which looks awesome.

If you are in NY or that general NY area....come on out! Do it!......do it...seriously

Lookey!!

BEAR-HORSE!

It's a rock song, it's a sitcom....It's Bear-Horse!

Yes in freakin' deedy! I just uploaded a Claymation/Stopmotion thingy that is known as BEAR-HORSE!

I took a stop motion class waaaaaaaay back in 2006. I've always wanted to do something in clay. That being said.. it was extremely difficult.

Working with actors is a bitch! Especially when your actors can't lift their wire arms up to their faces. Plus I had no way of testing what I was shooting. So I just winged the heck out of it. Just using the picture review button as some kind of guide.

Mantra on this short? "That'll do pig...that'll do...."


I killed 7 horses and 11 bears and wore their hides to get into character. It was intense...but so worth it. So very, very worth it.


Incidentally, I have 3 spare BEAR-HORSE LIVES fruit of the loom t-shirts available in large if anyone wants one.


Watch Bear-Horse do to sitcoms what I've been wanting to do for a while.

Turducken playing tonight @ LIAF

Ello Guvna! Fancy a spot o' tea my lovelies? Ooshe Booshe Boo?

Turducken plays in the LATE NIGHT BIZARRE tonight in London at the Horse Hospital. I've never been, but I think that is where they cure horses. So in my minds eye the films of tonight will probably be played off the back of a sick horse.

I encourage this! I think all my cartoons should be played on a sick horse. Screw Dvd, Internet, Blue Ray. Sick Horses are the future of entertainment.

I'm so cock sure that I'm going to buy up stock. Who's with me!? Huh? C'mon!!!!!

"cough cough!"

For the Love of SMod!

I love SModcast so much... I made a cartoon about it.

I did a limited animation of a excerpt from SModcast Episode 76: The Great One

It's that old chestnut of a story about a guy who is in charge of icing the rink for the Olympics and places a pair of panties as a center point in the ice.

The kind of story heroes are born from.

Maybe Jude Law will be playing the "Ice man" in a upcoming Hollywood film. Or maybe Shia Labeouf.... That dude is in every movie now. Put some Beouf on that ice.

Check it out on Youtube!

Turducken @ the Melbourne International Animation Festival

G'day Mates and plenty of other Austrailian sterotypes!

I'm going down on Mel......Down Under that is! At the Melbourne International Animation festival.

Turducken will be playing there with a bunch of other wicked cool films in the "LATE NIGHT BIZARRE".

I saw Mike Geigers "Cuddle Sticks" in NY at the Animation Block Parties opening night. As well as "Fantasie In Bubblewrap" played along with "Turducken" on the later Sunday shows for Animation Block party.

Very cool to be played among the list of films they have:

Click here to see em!

I'm playing along with Super Jail! Wooo!

Freakin wicked.

Goat Away On The Fred

Beaaaal!!

Tuesday Goat Away was put on the greatness that is...Channelfrederator.com

Check it out the 177th episode!



As always they do an interview when you get on, and mine is here.



Coolbeans!

Goat Away!!

Hey people of earth. What's going on?

I've been super late in posting things. Just up to my gills in paper work, Buying socks, testing kites, doing full flips into shallow water and juggling jagged skull crushing rocks.

Sure these are important things, But not so important that I not inform you of the new little toon I did called "Goat Away".

It was voiced and written by my old friend Stephen Kan-Hai and I.

How did it come to be you ask? Oh...you didn't ask that? Well, I'll tell you anyways...

Goat Away is based on a old inside joke based on our finding comedy in saying the name Bill.
It evolved to be a man slowly turning into a goat while saying the name Bill.
Over the years occasionally we would leave these inside jokes on each others answering machines.

We wrote it up over Christmas holidays and I animated it around January or so. I completely forgot about it. I am working on a 7 part series and writing a whole bunch so I kept forgetting to put it up on the old internet.

So if you haven't seen it here is some inside jokery turned cartoonery.
