A Boy Carved Of Oak With Piano Key Teeth

Aloha!

I know that I have been less-than-stellar at maintaining this blog for the last few weeks, but that all changes here and now! Animation wrapped recently on the film that I was working on this summer, so I have a little time to breathe and get to the bloggin'. I also recently had a fight with my scanner, so we're not speaking to each other right now (we're going through a rough patch. See, I want my scanner to work like it's supposed to, and my scanner feels the exact opposite).

But what I lack in mouth-watering doodles I make up for in relatively obscure French animated cinema! Word on the street is that directors Matthieu Buchalski, Jean-Michel Drechsler, and Thierry Onillon recently screened their wicked trippy mini opus Camera Obscura at this year's Ottawa International Animation Festival. Lucky for you (and me) there's a little spot on the internet where you can watch it: RIGHT HERE. I love it.

So, the order of the day is to get in with a scanner that can get the job done, give you all tasty sketchbook highlights, and occassionally make me some tea.

Aloha!
