Have you ever seen animation quite like this? I was excited to discuss this fantastic, at times creepy, animated film in a panel from the “virtual” Little Theatre on May 19. I was joined by animators Fred Armstrong and John Vincent, along with moderator Matt DeTurck of The Little Theatre. In this surrealist docu-horror-fairy tale, […]

My interest in radio goes back to making mixtapes as a kid, which unexpectedly led into deejaying at SUNY Geneseo’s WGSU and producing shows at 96.5 WCMF. Lately, that interest has been satisfied by podcasts — both by listening to and creating them. These days, I hardly listen to radio at all because I have a phone […]

Today I had the opportunity to get some aerial shots for a documentary I’m working on called “School’s Out.” Our task was to get some beauty shots of Rochester. John was shooting, our director Chris was navigating, and me? I was just along for the ride. That’s a pretty small whirlybird, isn’t it? The helicopter […]

Earlier this year, we released a rough trailer for Hero of the Underworld. Since then, I polished it up a bit — give it a click! We still have some post production work to do, but the film really came together well. Still too early to do any screenings, but I’ll post here when I have […]

Here’s my latest reel of animation work, including clips from the documentary That Guy Dick Miller and the opening titles from TV show The Right Stuff. Also some character designs and magic burros from the feature 3.14… and much much more!

It had to happen sooner or later! My winning streak at the Rochester Movie Makers annual screenplay contest was broken this year when I came in second to Curt Markham’s jaw-droppingly good “Up the River.” (Now if I could convince him to actually shoot that script, that would be something!) My short script is called […]

I’ve posted a snappy new animation reel on Youtube. If you like, click on over and “like” it or “comment” it or whatever the kids are doing today. If you REALLY like it, my services are available for hire. Contact me today about animating titles or logos for your movies or video productions. I thought […]

Lesia Vincent’s first novel, “Paradigm,” is now available through Createspace and Amazon. It is about modern day Stregheria (Italian witchcraft). If that catches your interest, why not support a Rochester writer and buy a copy? Oh, and here’s the cover, done by yours truly (and inspired by John William Waterhouse’s The Magic Circle). Buy “Paradigm” […]
