National Film Board Project

So exciting news! I've just finished work on a NFB short entitled "Little Thunder". Little Thunder is inspired by the Mi'kmaq legend, "The Stone Canoe" and is a 2 minute short that will air on APTN in February as part of a program to coincide with the 2010 winter Olympics.

I worked as Animator and Assistant Director on the film and I am very pleased with how the film turned out. The artwork for the Little Thunder is derived from the paintings of Alan Syliboy, a Mi'kmaq artist from Millbrook, Nova Scotia. Alan will be holding an exhibit of some of his work this weekend in Truro with the world premiere of Little Thunder taking place at the shows opening. If you are in the area this weekend I invite you to stop by and check it out.

For more information on the film and the exhibition click on the image above and for directions click here.

Update:

The opening was great. We had about 150 people in attendance. The screening room had about 75 seats to so we ended up screening the film a few times. The film is now screening as part of Alan's exhibit which will be on display until October 31, 2009. If you are in Truro over the next month be sure to stop in a check it out.

Hello good people of the blog-o-sphere.

For those of you who have been visiting, thank you for your patience. It has been a busy summer and I haven't added any new artwork for sometime.

What have I been doing? Well along with mowing the lawn, family commitments, mowing the lawn, regular summer activities, and mowing the lawn, I've been busy over the last little while finishing up a short I've been working on for the National Film Board of Canada. I have also started working on a personal project which will require some input from the public that will result in more regular blog updates. There will be more on that in the weeks to come but for now thanks for stopping by and I'll have more fun for you soon.

Happy Mom Day

No matter what kind of monsters we are, we are all loved by our mothers. Thanks for everything mom. I know I wasn't an easy kid to raise but I turned out all right... aside from the twitch that is.
