Rochester filmmakers Mike Russo and Derrick Petrush have posted the trailer for the slasher parody, “One Kill.” It’s a hysterical horror comedy short produced as part of last year’s Rochester Movie Makers summer challenge. I was not involved in the production, but this gives me an excuse to post the poster image I made for […]

Animate This! / Community / NOTLD:R / Subterranea April 24, 2009
READ MOREAll this week, while I was focused on animating a few scenes, Mike Schneider was thinking about the big picture. He was getting all the pieces in place for a relaunch of the Night of the Living Dead: Reanimated website, along with a new trailer for the project. Behold, the latest trailer! If you watch […]

I heard today about a short scene early in the movie that still needed attention. It’s about fourteen seconds of action in the cemetery featuring Barbara, Johnny, and the Bill Hinzman zombie. Exciting! It sounded fun and easy. I just worked on the first few seconds for a couple hours, but I don’t even have […]

Here is the completed animation for the 49 second section I’ve been working on. The deadline for content is the end of this week, so I’m sending my files off tonight. My half rotoscope / half flash puppet method is very time consuming. If I’m called on to do some more orphan scenes (which I’d […]

Here’s some more work from that same scene for Night of the Living Dead: Reanimated. My style is changing from shot to shot because I’m playing around, having fun. When finished, the whole movie will have a patchwork quality, so I don’t feel the need to stay consistent from shot to shot. When I’m done […]

As if I don’t have enough going on this month with Script Frenzy, I’m also doing some animation for Mike Schneider’s Night of the Living Dead: Reanimated project. The idea is to take George Romero’s 1968 zombie classic, which fell into public domain many years ago, and redo the entire feature in animation. Artists from […]

READ MOREToday’s scene? Pillow talk and an abrupt exit. For those keeping score, I’m way behind on pages. I’m pushing ahead anyway. Maybe I’ll catch up by the end of the month, maybe not, but at least I wrote 3 pages tonight! It’s interesting. I have an outline, but I got to a fork in the […]

Those of you following my Twitter feed have probably seen my references to Script Frenzy. I first heard about this online competition a couple months ago. And by competition, I mean a thing you do with other writers not for money, but for the satisfaction of accomplishing a goal. The point of Script Frenzy is […]

Okay, I’m only two lines into page 10, but that’s how I’m counting it. My plans for a big fat writing weekend fizzled, partly because I was working on cartoons, but mostly because I was watching television. Evil, evil television. On the plus side, it turns out Joss Whedon’s Dollhouse really does get better 6 […]
