So suddenly THIS site started getting malware errors. Determined not to let the hackers punt me out of my own website AGAIN, I went on a rampage.. investigating and trying to figure out what was going on. I think.. I believe.. that I’ve fixed it. See, I read in passing that people like to use […]
Hey folks, minor change to the theme for my site.. okay, not really minor, pretty major. I was getting tired of the old one, so put in this new one which feels more lively to me. 🙂 Anyway, nothing much more to report at the moment except that I went to see Fleetwood Mac with […]
The Weta Cave. Wow.. my old office is now a museum! Crazy!! If anyone goes, I’d love to see photos.. I’m curious if my old desk is still there & if they have maniquins representing the animators “working at their desks”. Is the ping pong table still there?

I can’t tell what company is coming or going, our retirement plans are worth 1/3 of what they were only a year ago, stocks go down, up, down, down, uuuuuup, and then down again. Mortgage rates are.. well, actually they’re […]
— MONSTERS VS ALIENS : In Theaters March 27, 2009 —. That’s right.. Monsters vs Aliens starts today! It’s our first offical 3d project.. animated from the beginning in 3d, aware of stereo the whole darn time. I was lucky enough to be on the pre-production team for the show. I got to work closely […]
This has got to be one of the most artistically inspiring things I’ve seen in a long time. This guy.. Kutiman.. basically took a whole bunch of YouTube clips and re-mixed both the video and audio to create his own unique songs & videos.
