THE ANIMATION</title><content type='html'>Hey all, remember about a year ago when I posted something touting the awesomeness of the Scott Pilgrim comic book series? ...No?  Well I did.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Turns out that as luck would have it I got to work on an animated featurette to help promote the recent movie adaptation that came out.  Now if there has even been something I would classify as a "Dream Project" this would have to have been it.  Anyone who knows me in person knows the depth of my obsession with the comic book series.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With that in mind, go ahead and watch knowing that the first 15-20 seconds, the last 10 and a few juicy bits in-between are all animated by yours truly!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object style="background-image: url(&amp;quot;http://i3.ytimg.com/vi/RSVzfeKoiv4/hqdefault.jpg&amp;quot;);" width="480" height="295"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/RSVzfeKoiv4?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/RSVzfeKoiv4?fs=1&amp;amp;hl=en_US" allowscriptaccess="never" allowfullscreen="true" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="295"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;FUN FACT:&lt;/span&gt; The officially recognized oldest man alive is 114 years old.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3590130329414613033-2334248492879754310?l=catsarenotblogs.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://catsarenotblogs.blogspot.com/feeds/2334248492879754310/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://catsarenotblogs.blogspot.com/2010/09/scott-pilgrim-vs-animation.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3590130329414613033/posts/default/2334248492879754310'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3590130329414613033/posts/default/2334248492879754310'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://catsarenotblogs.blogspot.com/2010/09/scott-pilgrim-vs-animation.html' title='SCOTT PILGRIM VS.

Oh, did I mention I got a new apartment? I'm living in East Hollywood just a Stone's throw from Titmouse, Being able to bike to work is quite the treat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What Have I been doing at said studio you ask? After graduating school Titmouse put me to work animating on season 3 of Metalocalypse, which wrapped up a month or two ago, so be on the look out for that one in the near future...  I think it is airing at the same time as the new episodes of the Venture Bros...  Also, keep an eye open for yours' truely in the season finally... I may or may not have managed to sneak myself into the episode somewhere...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3slhe3O6r-8/TJmVBPi1PoI/AAAAAAAAAMg/biD9qM-dBdk/s1600/Metalocalypse_logo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 154px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3slhe3O6r-8/TJmVBPi1PoI/AAAAAAAAAMg/biD9qM-dBdk/s400/Metalocalypse_logo.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5519606666904288898" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As for the present I have some unexpected time off and will do my best to use it to get some new art done to post here...

Once upon a time... about 4 years ago... there was a contest to design an enemy for a side-scrolling beat'um up flash in production called "Red Baron."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I entered the contest and took one of the 3 first place spots, won a copy of Street Fighter for PS2, and then never heard from them again...

How I missed it, I'm not quite sure...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The enemy that I created for this little gem was a red little Pygmy/Beetle person, he can be found on the 2nd level, so it won't be too hard to get to for those who are motivated enough to find it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can see him for yourself in this screen shot:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3slhe3O6r-8/SajDgu1q8rI/AAAAAAAAAEI/rIWXW-OgA1I/s1600-h/red_baron.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 230px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3slhe3O6r-8/SajDgu1q8rI/AAAAAAAAAEI/rIWXW-OgA1I/s400/red_baron.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5307707127952503474" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For interested parties the link can be found.......
