TOSAT

admin — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 00:02:13 +0000

Man oh man, it’s been a while. Really looking forward to beginning the school year, starting to teach a new class, and wrapping up my thesis. There are a lot of exciting things planned for the next couple of months. In the meantime, here’s a quick piece I did for the Toronto Street Art Takeover. The event was set up once again by our illustrious friends over at Public Ad Campaign(click the images for large versions).

The first and second are the final piece and its installation in a public bus shelter. The third is the initial sketch I painted it from. The piece itself is 67 x 47 inches and was done in acrylics. I need to paint more. You can see all the other amazing work from the project here: http://www.publicadcampaign.com/tosat/

Wandering Storyboards

First few storyboards for network piece- see here for details. I’m trying to incorporate multiple videos and traditional animation together at once. No idea if it will work out or not.

Inks!

Some roughs and inks of the comic, hot out of the oven.

I know i say this a lot but, illustrating comics is the most demanding thing I have ever tried to do. Hands down.

Revised Surface Value sound design

Paul did some new sound work for a revised cut of Surface Value, which I think is altogether a bit more subtle than the last version- hopefully this enhances the impact of the piece overall.

Dynamic City

continuing along with my exploration into cities- an interactive piece I’m currently building in OpenFrameworks that utilizes openCV and openGL to generate and move through a virtual city. Still trying to overcome frame-rate issues, which will probably only be solved by getting a faster computer. I love my 13 macbook pro, but it just can’t handle things like this.

Wideshot Tests for Agent

Doing studies for the location design of the comic project. Since we’ve relocated the story to the Pacific Northwest, The University of Washington seemed like the perfect school for our characters to attend. This shot is based off of the Astronomy, Physics building at the university.

Paper Tiger Documentary on Street Art Takeover

admin — Fri, 28 Aug 2009 17:15:12 +0000

Paper Tiger filmed a short piece on NYSAT the ad-intervention street art project organized by Jordan Seiler last spring. I forgot that they had interviewed me for it while I was installing my piece, until today when a friend mentioned seeing it at a screening last night. There’s some really great interviews with other artists, with Jordan and with people on the street.

I come off as more coherent than I remember considering I hadn’t slept the night before.
