I did up some doofus dance moves for the characters that I designed and animated for the IFC show, Portlandia that roll in during the end credits of episode six, “Baseball”, worked on by my old Tim and Eric productions pals Krisel and Lussenhop. Someone looped the action in a YouTube video above where I am credited as McD Workshop.
Nice, Farel has posted a slew of new art on his website. Looks like he’s got news that he’s coming to your neighborhood too, maybe, since he’s going to a lot of shows in the next few months.
Daniel Clowes now has a website with news blog that contains several recent illustrations, and sections still under development that will have original art and oddities. It is all beautiful, outstanding work. It’s nice to see it on an officially authorized website. Great work by the site constructors too, I am looking forward to seeing more. When I moved to NYC in ’97 it was a sweet time-spot for running around to all the comics shops and buying back issues of Eightball by Daniel Clowes with abandon (along with Grit Baths, Dirty Plottes, Black Holes, Idiotlands, Acme Novelty Librarys and Zero Zeros). Via Drawn.
Dash is now posting daily drawings directly related to his feature film in production, The Ruined Cast. Above drawings, concept art and storyboards by Dash Shaw and Frank Santoro.
Frank Santoro started up a good discussion on the Comics Comics blog recently which prompted over 100 comments from a variety of cartoonists discussing the struggle of achieving the ultimate life/work/comics balance. It’s a good read for all types of creative people trying to build a life around doing the things that they love to do.
Recently we only have gotten a sizable Meathaus crew together in person once a year around MoCCA-fest-time in NYC to chew the fat and gnaw some steaks. So what the heck has Becky been up to lately? Looks like she’s just being an ink-master as usual. Becky’s website, blog.
