Today's Projects

Today I actually had some free time so I figured I'd spend it working in Photoshop and Flash. I tried find classes in the area for medical illustration and animation, but it seems that all of the local colleges want you to enroll to get a degree in order to take their courses.

I opted to just look at pictures of skulls and try drawing them in Photoshop as general practice. After I got bored of looking at human skeletons, I worked a little bit more on the drawings for Punch Card Zombies. I got most of the turn-around animation of Ned done before I had more important work that needed to get done. Right now he kind of does an Exorcist head turn as you can see on the web page. the project is coming along slowly but surely.

Punch Card Zombies is my new upcoming web series. It's about Ned Zombie, a white collar zombie who works for Zombeet Inc., and his co-workers who also happen to be the living dead. Ned is in charge of advertising, where he tries to win over zombie customers into the realm of vegetarianism with his catch phrase "Beets are like Brains, but Better!" Unfortunately, most of the zombie population doesn't want to give up their carnivorous lifestyle, but Ned and his co-workers are determined to change the world. Check out www.PunchCardZombies.com for new updates and news about how far the series is progressing.

2010 Goals

I'm not one for New Year's Resolutions, but I do think it's important to make a list of goals to try to accomplish so I've compiled a list of things I would like to do in 2010, both personal and professional.

1. Create a new animated web cartoon


2. Eat less meat products that come from large corporations that abuse animals


3. Eat more locally grown produce


4. Spend less money on unnecessary gadgets and products


5. Support more causes and charities I believe in


6. Finally buy a new car and retire my 92 Toyota Paseo


7. Travel more


8. Learn more about actionScript 3.0 and the latest software in my field


9. Try to see my friends and family from PA more

Those are just a few things I can think of, hopefully I'll be able to accomplish most if not all of them this year.
