A Christmas Jingle

Here is the Christmas card I did for my new animated little company Kalina Pictures and Airfoil Media. Have a very merry Christmas, happy New Year, and an all-round amazing holiday season!

Two by Two... again

Yes yes, I understand that I have indeed posed my Student film, "Two by Two", on my blog before... however I have been reviewing my online uploads and it occurred to me that I don't really use my hotmail account anymore. Not that there's anything wrong with that. It's just, I now use Gmail. The ONLY problem that I face now is what do I do with my old YouTube account [the one that I set up when my email address read something like (but not literally) centaur362@hotmail.com?]

This all had come to the surface this week and here's why: I was just going to upload a new 30 second animation exercise I recently completed (still to come). I went on my old YouTube account and found that I had messages waiting for me from TWO YEARS AGO! Like, personal ones, from creative developers and stuff! LAME... SAUCE! I felt like an idiot. So now I need to streamline this online stuff.

Some people may say, "Dude, just get a Vimeo accunt, they rock." And to those people I would say, "Thanks I have one of those but I am only able to upload, like 500 MG a week or something... and I don't want to pay $10 a month... not yet anyway. I'm still kinda on a spending freeze."

Other might say, "Hey bra, just make a new YouTube account through Gmail." And to THOSE people I would say, "Thanks, but what about my first account? It has almost 4,000 views and I am vain."
*sad-face

I deliberated long and hard and have come up with a solution.

I am going to upload to Vimeo AND YouTube! Streamline!

I'll keep the original posting of Two by Two up there because, you know, gotta reach 4,000, but for all my new stuff I'll have it up on my new YouTube and Vimeo.

This was a long and somewhat unnecessary post just to say, I am reposting Two by Two AND it has been slightly improved for your viewing pleasure.

In tha Gadda da Vida

These are two rough drawings I did for a short film I'm working on about Adam and Eve, called... "Adam and Eve".

Aaaanywho, more stuff to come soon :)

All right! Another Saga Entry

Here is another instalment to the ongoing Saga of Matt and Randeep and our journey through making a film. This one has a guest appearance of our friends Mel and Ian. This one's based on a true story... probably.

Also... here are some more designs from the film. Be sure to check out the film blog. I'm not posting everything on here. PLUS! Randeep has stuff up there too. So go check it out :)

The Matt and Randeep Saga continues... AND a new film blog!

Here is a new little Matt and Randeep Saga instalment for you. ALSO!!! We just made a new blog for the film we're working on. Here are a couple character sketches I've done and Randeep just added a bunch of stuff yesterday. Go have a look. We'll be updating it regularly... I hope.

Two By Two

So my buddy Vlad just uploaded his student film "C-Block" to his blog and it got me thinking... why haven't I done that yet? So here it is. My student film from my graduating year out of the Sheridan Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning (breeaaath*) BAA - Animation program of 2008.

Enjoy!

Now in amazing "Technicolor"

Same layout, cleaned and coloured! Enjoy.

Bee Gee!!!

Here you go. Yet again, it's been a while silnce I've posted... not as long as last time, mind you. But this is the first official piece of Matthew film art to be posted on this blog! Hahaha! I will conquer all!!!! Woah, slow down sparky, you've still got three months of this crap to go. Pace yourself.

I hope you like this as well as that little internal conversation I had with myself... later!

Some More Stuff? Thweet!

Well, I said I'd be back... and here I am! It didn't take as long this time I suppose. Here are some more concept paintings I just finished not five seconds ago. I hope you like them! I love Photoshop, that's all I've got to say.

Well, there's still more to come! I'll be back soon!

Concept Art Begins

So finally, I get some concept art on the roll. There's more on the way but I'm not going to promise when it'll show its face. I've come to realize that I've been making it a bad habit of promising one thing and not being able to deliver on time. So for now please, enjoy... but I'll be back, I promise... soon... I swear!

Out to the Zoo

Some of these are from a trip to the Metro Toronto Zoo. Others are sketches thought of afterward.
