I’m having some work shown at the excellent “Too Art For TV” exhibition held at Erebuni, 158 Roebling Street, Williamsburg, New York.The opening is a week today (6-9pm 5th Dec)and the exhibition runs from 5th until the 15th Dec. The idea is to show work by industry animators who do art on the side:
“Erebuni is pleased to present Too Art for TV 3, the third annual group exhibition showcasing the fine art expressions of the animation industry. Twice before, this show has drawn in excited, elbow-to-elbow crowds of artists, illustrators, filmmakers, animators, and fans of animation. This year’s exhibit, now the biggest one in Too Art for TV’s history, features 36 artists who- by way of toys, prints, paintings, sculptures, and experimental film- will set free their skills otherwise “owned” by television networks bosses.”
If you’re in town please check it out. You can see from the website that there’ll be lots of exciting stuff to see, made by people far more talented and interesting than myself.

One Hundredth Person
My Tumble Log is an ongoing collection of interesting stuff I stumble across on the internet, a commentary-free, instinctive train of randomness. It’s very self indulgent, and mainly focuses on alternative comics, interesting animation and new music, because that’s what I like, but the main aim is not to think it through too much, and just go with what feels right, because, as I may have mentioned before, I don’t have much spare time to lark about on the internet.
One hundred people have now seen fit to follow what goes on this tumblelog, which is very humbling, and also makes me feel slightly frightened, in a nice way, though.
Thanks to you 100 mostly strangers for the support.
You can also find it on Tumblr’s Artists page.

British Style Genius
Recently at BDH, myself and the very clever and splendid Orla Handley made the titles for the up coming BBC series “British Style Genius“. The first episode of which goes out 21:00hrs, 7th October on BBC TWO (that’s in the UK only as far as I know).
Handley did the designing, editing, crazy-bonkers stop frame animation etc. I made CGI threads, worked out how to fit them with the stop frame, some compositing, a bit of camera holding, frowning, pointing, and occasional fetching stuff.
After the initial building of the sequence Handley went on to produce five separate colorways, to match the style of each episode of the series, which all deal with different sections of British fashion history.
This means everyone must watch all five episodes to fully appreciate the total awesomeness of this title sequence.
