Please come out and check out the shop and the work in the mini-gallery. There are so many amazing artists that will have pieces in the show. I'm honored to have a piece hanging, but man... there are some heavy hitters that will be along side of me. I'm helping to make them look real good :)<br />

It's been a personal roller coaster of crazy life stuff. But I'm not going to bore you with all of the details.<br />
<br />
This might be my last post of the year, so I thought I'd hit this one up as a bit of a trifecta.<br />
<br />
...<br />
<br />
<br />
First off; I've been lucky enough to have been Lead Character designer for Adventure Time on Cartoon Network. Our first season finished airing earlier in the year and I couldn't be more ecstatic about it's reception.... I also can't believe that I'll be wrapping design on season 2 this week.<br />
<br />
One of the coolest aspects of being part of Adventure Time has been working on the episode title cards. The cartoon title card has been one of my favorite traditions in animation and dates back to the earliest of cartoons. On Adventure Time we decided to try something a little different by trying to visually package each episode with something a bit more pulpy than the actual content of the show. It was definitely a struggle at times, but I think overall they turned out incredibly well. We didn't have much time worked into our day to day to handle the workload that these title cards demanded, but everyone involved really gave their all to make them as great as possible.<br />
<br />
Many of them started as thumbnails or concepts by Pen or Pat and just as many were riffed off of exististing pulp art.<br />
<br />
I was responsible for laying out 25 of the 26 title cards. <a href="http://santinomaldito.blogspot.com/">Santino</a> laid one out as well, and did a BG for another. They were then handed off to art director <a href="http://njennings.com/Home_Page.html">Nick Jennings</a> and painted by <a href="http://www.paullinsley.com/">Paul Linsley</a> and returned for a final polish pass by Nick.<br />
<br />
Here are some of my favorite contributions. This was a really fun illustration challenge for me and I had to really try to dive into some type design..... which I still need a lot of practice doing.<br />
<br />

I had a blast with this one. Frazetta's work is boundless with inspiration.</td></tr>

</div><div>It's been a dream come true; I'm teaching Character Design at CalArts! I had my last official class of 1st semester this past Thursday. It was an awesome semester. I've learned so much about what's important to me as a Designer and I'm constantly amazed and inspired by my students. I have a long way to go to tighten up my curriculum, but I think everyone has responded really well first semester. </div><div><br />
</div><div>I would never be there teaching if it hadn't been for some awesome encouragement and well timed recommendations by two uber talented students, <a href="http://cannedcampbellsoup.blogspot.com/">Kristen Campbell</a> and <a href="http://superrugged.blogspot.com/">MJ "Double Vision" Sandhee</a> (..... go see a doctor dude).</div><div><br />

</div><div>I'm slowly in the process of overhauling <a href="http://www.rynda.com/">www.rynda.com</a>. Along side of that, I've opened a <a href="http://philrynda.bigcartel.com/">web store</a>. </div><div><br />

There are a few promo stills on the web that you can see if you do some digging.<br /><br />I've been meaning to post this for a while, but never got to writing the blog post around it. So here's Chomet's short "The Old Lady and the Pigeons" without any of my rambling to go alongside of it. Oh, and it should be noted that <a href="http://villa-kujoyama.com/spip/spip.php?article669&lang=fr">Nicolas de Crecy</a> had a big hand in the final look of the short. <br /><div><object width="480" height="405"><param name="movie" value="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/xw7xw&colors=foreground:E8006A;special:000000;"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/xw7xw&colors=foreground:E8006A;special:000000;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="405" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object><br /><b><a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xw7xw_la-vieille-dame-et-les-pigeons_creation">La vieille dame et les pigeons</a></b><br /><i>Uploaded by <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/XLanig">XLanig</a>. - <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/us/channel/creation">Independent web videos.</a></i></div><br />and a commercial Chomet directed...<br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3bLBqYxsjX8&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3bLBqYxsjX8&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br />Chomet!!!!

Birthdays are cool, and I hope that he has a great one. But what I learned via that post was that Bud Luckey animated and co-wrote the Donny Budd shorts for Sesame Street! These were some of my favorites as a kid and I had pretty much completely forgotten about them. And it all makes sense now. I really enjoyed Pixar's "Boundin" but I could never put a finger on why it felt so familiar to me. But now I know! There is a certain youthfulness and energy in Boundin' that brings me back to some of my favorite shorts from Sesame Street. <br /><br />Well... here are some of Donny Budd shorts. The drawings are so great in these cartoons. They blow my fan art out of the water.<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344" align="center"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/EB4THerTF7w&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/EB4THerTF7w&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ISwRMLYOiHQ&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ISwRMLYOiHQ&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/KdQXbQ3ZH2E&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/KdQXbQ3ZH2E&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2_sgeDSURho&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/2_sgeDSURho&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />Happy Birthday Bud! and thanks,<br />PhilUncle Philhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01782789250885810557noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7881561.post-25153566083356616132009-07-28T00:56:00.000-07:002009-07-28T01:13:12.547-07:00Back from Comic ConAmanda and I are back from our whirlwind/totally under-planned trip to SDCC. I handed out just about all of my mini comics (50 of them!). I'm going to print up a second batch and send them out to whoever would like one. I'll post when they are printed up.<br /><br />We had a good time and saw some old friends and made some new ones. Thanks to <a href="http://normallife.livejournal.com/">Natasha</a> and her Arizona cartoonist crew for letting us crash at their hotel. Also thanks to <a href="http://andyupdates.blogspot.com/">Andy</a> for giving us a place to call home on the convention floor. Thanks to <a href="http://cartoonretro.blogspot.com/">Shane Glines</a> for the ridiculously nice compliment.

I have mixed emotions about drawing from life in this manner, but it could be just my stubbornness. I enjoy the concept of a more relaxed life drawing environment and it allows people to have more fun and experiment more. Buuuttttt... I seem to struggle with having fun at these drawing sessions. I need to relax a little more and just go with the flow. I need to separate the super intense life drawing that I did in <a href="http://www.jamesmcmullan.com/">Jim McMullan</a> and <a href="http://stephengaffney.blogspot.com/">Stephen Gaffney's</a> classes, and think of this as more of a drawing playground. Don't get me wrong, I'm having fun, but I guess I feel like I should be having even MORE fun. I just don't enjoy it quite as much as those super intense drawing sessions. Even still, I'll keep showing up to The Drawing Club if I can and I appreciate that Bob Kato organizes this night for us artists in Los Angeles.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiR2C1wqAp9CCjhmrYA73Bd6bhkdHcr50yV8VnwfWbU3XKnMNppZRwA-u9iWDzTMFiPlaSg_cjNqKZfbhyphenhyphen-Q15wucruNTo2qOVuko6YrEHA1Xzu4imIOR_sVFt8Gq3nH261JNJr_Q/s1600-h/Frazetta-Girl-Phil-04.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 224px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiR2C1wqAp9CCjhmrYA73Bd6bhkdHcr50yV8VnwfWbU3XKnMNppZRwA-u9iWDzTMFiPlaSg_cjNqKZfbhyphenhyphen-Q15wucruNTo2qOVuko6YrEHA1Xzu4imIOR_sVFt8Gq3nH261JNJr_Q/s320/Frazetta-Girl-Phil-04.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345054523199587458" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwARaO-eGFTypcFiR6h9A9K4wwXbLR8uRSTV77kXAju-OfWLoMfEqZyONDPDS5KMqdyQ3oADfW9fah6RmIjacNZmTDdet5AjqjUZHDcP0sak5Gl0Cxxk0hENNb4B8b7IAR_U3WHQ/s1600-h/Frazetta-Girl-Phil-03.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 212px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwARaO-eGFTypcFiR6h9A9K4wwXbLR8uRSTV77kXAju-OfWLoMfEqZyONDPDS5KMqdyQ3oADfW9fah6RmIjacNZmTDdet5AjqjUZHDcP0sak5Gl0Cxxk0hENNb4B8b7IAR_U3WHQ/s320/Frazetta-Girl-Phil-03.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345054527094744722" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqd53eCeswNHUGPoEo2I72fgSeK2Wi2O4o7dwCNZY-DF6T1W5lCrKMOFg8Bzc-ta2Owhor3D1_NM2ohjusjNL5NqCr3ujOLx-CwvmNK3N7w6PADDrzSrvP2DNwMq6wLNw95vUMbg/s1600-h/Frazetta-Girl-Phil-02.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 195px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqd53eCeswNHUGPoEo2I72fgSeK2Wi2O4o7dwCNZY-DF6T1W5lCrKMOFg8Bzc-ta2Owhor3D1_NM2ohjusjNL5NqCr3ujOLx-CwvmNK3N7w6PADDrzSrvP2DNwMq6wLNw95vUMbg/s320/Frazetta-Girl-Phil-02.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345054521313155714" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZjApnq4a3YaAWO6uB_nypHtPoxCCQHu9tg1cqxcrp3z5alqcOKZGteIDTG3oug8tnW0zCILpc-YRTVwxX0hjf537ZL1A9nRMEdJvswVoDbCt2tTRME0eD-dNRPcct6IK14YmaTA/s1600-h/Frazetta-Girl-Phil-01.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 208px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZjApnq4a3YaAWO6uB_nypHtPoxCCQHu9tg1cqxcrp3z5alqcOKZGteIDTG3oug8tnW0zCILpc-YRTVwxX0hjf537ZL1A9nRMEdJvswVoDbCt2tTRME0eD-dNRPcct6IK14YmaTA/s320/Frazetta-Girl-Phil-01.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345054429350940018" /></a><br /><br />..and....
