Lutefisk Sushi C

Friday night was the release party for Lutefisk Sushi C at the Altered Esthetics Gallery here in Minneapolis. PUNY's best friend Kevin Cannon designed this year's bento box, and was a featured attraction at the art show. The show was packed to the brim with excitement. It was truly a sight to see.

Yo Gabba Gabba Season 2!

It's exciting times around the studio as Yo Gabba Gabba's second season production is winding up. We've heard about a ton of great bands and guest stars this year, and can't wait to hear the songs. Julia is working on-site at The Magic Store and took some photos:


Here's Julia in her PUNY Blog purple-hair debut with Brain Genius Craig and Pilot Foofa before her new design...and speaking of design...Yo Gabba Gabba was just nominated for a Emmy for its costumes/designs! Julia has already started pre-production storyboards and will be boarding the whole season before jumping into Gabbimation.

What's this? A set built! ...for the first "Super Music Friends Show" bit. Keep up to date on the production here: Yo Gabba Gabba Production Blog

We're already working on some "Storytime" segments and are very excited for a jingle Directed by Tim Sievert and Mitch Loidolt with music from a UK band that's been on our playlist for a while. It looks like there will be a King Mini guest artist segment too. There is a lot that is cool about this season...and plenty of months to talk about it.

Oh, I registered for San Diego Comic-Con tonight, which will have some very cool news about another TV Pilot we worked on. Spring has just arrived, but fall is going to be amazing.

It's Spring

Gage asked us to build this site where people can go to support the National Marrow Donor Program.

So please go upload your photo and share a story, and pick a default flower image and make your mark...then send it along to some friends. Maybe some of them will go on to save a life. You don't have to get involved with anything to upload your photo..it's just a crowd of support for this cause.
