That lazy Bear-Horse is just loungin' the fuck out at the 7th annual Berlin International Directors Lounge,

"The festival for contemporary media and film. 10th to 20th of February, art house meinblau, Pfefferberg. Daily from 6pm till dawn."

Interns Wanted

Hear yee, Hear yee!

Starktoons is in need of some interns. Do you draw? Know all about animation? Know nothing of what I'm talking about? Good! Cause there are plenty of spots for anyone who wants to jump on.

I have a big project that is TBA and will be lots of fun.

Sadly interns don't get paid...or laid Monica Lewinsky styles. However, The next time I am hiring and I like your work, you will be first in line.

Peeps I could use:

Clean up, digital ink and paint, Photoshop maskers and sound designers.

Hit me up at steve@starktoons.com

Awesome Possum,

Steve

Starktoons Is Incorporated

"FUCK!"

You sure fuckin' said it little kid! It's all true. I have a certificate, a bank card and another card that lets me punch someone in the face on any Tuesday from 6 am till 7 pm. That's true. Look into it.

HUGE Endless thanks to Kevin Smith, Scott Mosier, Ken Plume, Jason Mewes & Jordan Monsanto.

Fun stuff coming up! Stay tuned ya'll!

Christmas Wrap up

Take a look, it's in a book....Reading Rainbooooowwwww!

As a gift for my nieces and cousins lil' kids I illustrated a kids book written by my roommate. It's called "It's so hard to be a kitty cat".

This is one of my favorite drawings from the book.

This is my niece Bella. She was watching me work over the holidays and wanted to do a cartoon. Check out her cartoon I helped her make!

It's called "Tornado"

Happy 2011

Great Scott! It's time for a new SModimation!

Last night Darth Vader came down from the planet Vulcan & said if you didn't watch this months SModimation....he'd melt my brain!

Stop Motion Madness

Here's some behind the scenes photos from SModimation 10 - Smerry Christmas

Here's early Ru-Scott. Styrofoam balls and wire.

2 Christmas bears from the dollar store were sacrificed to make Ru-scott

Little bit of hot glue...

Nail to hold up his mouth...

It's Ru-scott!

Then it was time for Kevin as the snowman

I had to make his Puck U jersey out of a couple of dollar towels. One of them was a leafs towel. Scandalous!

Little bit of hot glue..

Almost there..

Booya! It's a SnowKev

Setting up the shot..

Animating the characters..

Where the puppets reside today. On my shelf. Ever watching, staring, judging....

SMerry Christmas

Smerry Christmas to all!

This one has some Stop motion madness Rank n' bass style. Probably more Rank'n Ass style... cause it's not as good as what they can do. Hope you likey!

Happy Holidays y'all!

Bear-Horse Graduates!

I got a cool lil' email from the Folks at the Russian LINOLEUM Fest.

Usually you never hear from a fest about anything after your film is screened. It's like a one night stand. So it was a cool surprise.


It's also cool to see one of my kids graduate. Turducken dropped out. The teachers said it was like he wasn't even there. That kid from Peanut Butter Fish Pockets went all crazy with his child stardom and is now in rehab. Oh! and Douchey?! Don't let me even start about Douchey.

Big ol' thanks to all at LINOLEUM Fest!

You look like you might not give a tit....

If so this just might be for you.


It's the perfect gift for a grandmother or a grandmothers friend, or even a grandmothers grandmothers friend.

EWW!

I bet she could play a GRAND piano....am I right? anybody? No one?...Thanks you've been a great crowd! Goodnight!

(made specially for @J4Yx2 on twitter who tweeted the idea to me. Yay!)

BUY THEM SHITS

I'm on a mexican radio!

"This Starktoons guy sounds like a jackass!"

Actually it's not Mexican at all. But it is spicy!

I did lil' interview that will air Tuesday the 2nd at 1:25pm p.t. /4:25pm e.t. on evolution1079.com

So tune in if you want to hear me ramble on like an idiot. I sound all nervous/retarded. Beyond that, I do sound like one of those morning helicopter dudes they used to have for traffic. I've always wanted to sound like one of those guys.

Thanks again to Derek Moore @ Evolution1079 for the interest in doing the interview!

Coolbeans!

Jesus Strikes Back!

Tune in from where you left off! Where Kevin & Scott are watching as a giant Jesus bellows and stomps around town, possibly peeing themselves. I know I peed myself. 3 times! I'm sure everyone who saw it did...right? ...No? ...Nobody? Yeah me neither, I've never peed in my life...I swear (shifty eyes)

Anyways..


Check it out!

Plus download the awesome end song by my buddy Ted Wilson. YEAH!

Sweet Jesus! It's time for another SModimation!

St. Stephen Richardo Starkus patron saint of miscellaneous bits of string and beef jerky.

It's first of the month! New SModimation day! HOLY TITS! FAWWK!!!

This SModimation is 1 of a 2 part excerpt from SModcast 52: The Crapture.

If you know this episode, then you'll know Jesus is coming back and he isn't coming to pet puppies, make cotton candy and listen to babies laugh like last time he was here.

Check it out!

This SModimation is brought to you by: The letter B and.....Fleshlight

G4TV Podcast playback

G4TV did a really kickass interview with Kevin Smith and Scott Mosier all about the SModcast podcast network.

Kevin says what I've always felt. When they are talking it's like you are the 3rd person in the room. Feels like hanging with friends.

There's also a little snippet from SModimation 2: "Aquatic Justice" in there. That's the teats!

Check it!

A Cautionary Tale

It's a drug fueled cartoon. Starting off with a couple of characters Called Spliff & Knifey Brownie. Then we move on to a Muppet style live show where Ralph Scott spins his coke & maryjane adventure to the special guest: Kevin Smith.

Ralph was always my favorite muppet as a kid.




Look for a special muppet like cameo from 2 of the fellas from Tell em' Steve-Dave

Go look now!

Yuks instead of Yaks

What is up people. I have a hankering to help sick people laugh. Why you ask? Well, recently I was super sick & on some antibiotics. It was the worst. At one point I had to call 911 cause I thought I was on the way out. Never had to do that before. Don't want to do that again really either.

When sick you have terrible dreams and pretty terrible awakened times as well. I couldn't even watch anything dramatic. The only thing that helped me feel a little better was watching a whole bunch of comedy.

So I would like to help sick people get some yuks instead of yaks. Or maybe yuks inbetween the yaks. I have no idea how I can achieve this, but I'm putting it out there to you internet. Maybe I'll figure a way of doing this or maybe something is already in place that I can take part in.

Just wanted to put the word out there.

If you have any ideas on the subject or you are a funny fawker who thinks this is a good idea, throw me an email at steve@starktoons.com


Highest of fives,


Steve-arino-bagino Stark

Huge thanks to Kevin Smith, Scott Mosier and Ken Plume! I'd never thought in a million years I'd have something playing at Comic-Con. Super cool

I wouldn't of been able to get it done in time for Comic-Con without my friends that helped me out. Thanks friends. You saved the day. (That's them below under clean up and lipsync)

I get by with a little help from my friends



I thought I'd throw in a little behind the scenes drawing. There I am cleaning up a rough drawing. It was one of my favorite drawings of the toon. It's the antic before he starts coughing.



Monkeys,

Steve Stark
