Trixie’s Trouble

Herd

This is not official Ice Age art. Just a portfolio piece. I finished it a while ago, but wanted the latest movie to come out before posting.

For those wondering why I haven’t posted in so long, I’ve been busy doing Story Board work for Blue Sky and welcoming a son into the world!

Island

The Beet

This is a drawing that I did about 7 years ago.  It was an idea for an animated short film.  I didn’t do the film in the end, but the idea kept coming back to me.  It’s inspired the recent “Stranded” sketches I’ve been doing and I’ve enjoyed taking the idea into different spaces and a more painterly style.

I Am Big Bird

My good friend, Chris Siemasko and I got the opportunity to do some animation for the film “I Am Big Bird”.  It’s a really great documentary about the life and career of Carroll Spinney, the man who has played Big Bird on Sesame Street since the show’s inception.  This is a line test of one of the sequences I did.  We tried to match the style of Sesame Street animations from the 70′s so the animation is very limited.  With color and post production, these little inserts are really fun, but you’ll have to watch the film to see how they came out.  I’m really happy to have been able to contribute to this project.

The documentary is in select theaters this week and is also available to buy or rent on iTunes.  Check it out!

The film was directed by Chad Walker and Dave LaMattina and their production company Copper Pot Pictures.
