Ha-ha…I love this one.  Another animation I did for the 11 second club.  The trouble was I used up all my time animating the little kid’s dance and had to throw the father in at the last minute.  But I had fun animating the kid at least.

You can view it on YouTube.

K, I started this animation much earlier in the month so I could actually finish it for the 11 second club.  So here you go…a new finished animation!

You can view it on You Tube.

Holy cow!  I just got back from Target where I picked up my copy of Ben 10: Race Against Time on DVD.  As you know I animated Grey Matter in the film and had a lot of fun doing it.  I don’t think I’ll ever get over the cool feeling of seeing your work up on a shelf available to purchase. 

P.S. Oh, and just as an aside, I did a small sequence of animated disco dancing guinea pigs that you can check out on Nickelodeon’s movie Shredderman Rules! which you can also check out on DVD. (It was a very small clip that I haven’t gotten around to posting here)

So I'm sitting around minding my own business today when Super 78 sends me this email...

"Variety announced today that Ben 10 is nominated for TWO Visual Effects/Animation awards by the Visual Effects Society."

One of those awards being for the Grey Matter sequence I animated for the film!  How cool is that!  Here's a link to the Variety articles list of nominees...

Look for my name under the award for ANIMATED CHARACTER IN A LIVE ACTION BROADCAST PROGRAM OR COMMERCIAL

So let me get this straight....not only will they pay you, they may even give you awards for playing around all day....pretty sure

COOLEST JOB EVER!!!

One of the last things I did at Super 78 before I left was work on Grey Matter for the live action movie...

Ben 10: Race Against Time on Cartoon Network

If you don't know what Ben 10 is, shame on you!  Watch more cartoons!  (it's about a boy who fights bad guys by becoming one of 10 different aliens by injecting himself with their DNA which is stored in his wristband (the Omnitrix).  Grey Matter is one of the aliens he turns into.)

Now, I'm not exactly unbiased, but I think Grey Matter steals the show (no offense to Lee Majors, he's great too, I sure don't want the Bionic Man to come after me).  Of course I recommend watching the whole film in high resolution on Cartoon Network, but if you can no longer catch a rebroadcast, you can check out my work on YouTube thanks to a Ben 10 fan.

I modeled Grey Matter and was responsible for his animation in the whole sequence with the exception of the morph scene at the very beginning.  Check it out...

YAY...Finally an update.  Heck, I've got a whole new webpage!  Still need to fix the navigation bars so there's a link to it, but in the meantime click the picture below to go to the new TransZ webpage!  Have fun and enjoy.

Well, this is a bonus.  Only at the new job a couple weeks and I get to share what I'm working on with you.  They just had a big launch showing the media the game.  You can check it out and watch the trailer here: www.FractureGame.com

As much as they show in the trailer, just wait....you haven't seen anything yet.
