Vincent has been sneaking downstairs to build walls.


Why is this guy smiling?


There is a big ol' machine under here, for future use.


A new playroom soon joins the PUNY DIY family of suites.

So I'm wrapping up a commercial for Blu-Ray DVDs through Pop Johnson Creative in Burbank.
The concept is a pie chart that comes to life - the larger slice representing Blu-Ray, the smaller, HD.

Here are some initial designs for the hungry Blu-Ray slice


And little HD




They wanted to see how the transition would work from pie slice to character


Coloring options


We decided on digital coloring to save some time - then they wanted to see some different eye options for Blu-ray.


Semi-final designs


First draft of the storyboard



A screenshot from the commercial after a background had been chosen.


One of the last changes after the animation was complete was to remove the face on the HD character.

Here's me and Julie Habermaier testing out the interactive wall early Friday morning.

Even though Julia lives all the way out in sunny CA, thanks to the miracles of modern technology, we can partake in our favorite game BEOWULF!

If you didn't get a chance to check out our show at the Uptown Urban Outfitters this weekend FEAR NOT! Our prints will be will be holding their ground for a special bonus week of exhibition. Check it out.

Today was day 2 of our three day interactive installation at the Uptown Urban Outfitters. Shoppers seemed very aware and curious to the installation without knowing fully what to do. With a little exploration, they caught on very quickly. I caught women's department manager Julie Habermaier giving it a whirl.

Recently Urban Outfitters has been featuring artists installations. Our good friend Brett Schlosser was featured last month, and for the past few days we've featured an installation in two parts. First this stunning print show...





...and secondly we setup a interactive video wall where passerbys can play with various designs and creatures.




It's up for the rest of this weekend (the busiest shopping weekend of the year you know)

Trying not to be outdone by anyone's outdoing, here is the finalized Man-Thing costume, complete with foliage.

Not to be outdone by Tim's incredible "Man Thing" costume, may I present Cyclops Jogger with tote.
