Once again, apologies for the lack of updates in the last week-and-a-bit. Things have been a little bit chaotic for me, partly because I just started a new job. I am now an assistant animator, working on the RANT DOG cartoons! Somehow making those expired copyright theatre animations has translated itself into an employable skill. All it took was an insane fluke of luck whereby my friend Arthur, henceforth known as OPTIMUS PRIME SUPERFRIEND NUMBER ONE sold a computer to Norm, the Rantdog director, and mentioned that I use the same software for animation that he does, and things progressed from there. How the hell Optimus Prime Superfriend Number One remembered what software I used (Toon Boom Studio although I recently upgraded to Toon Boom Animate, in case you were wondering) is a mystery for the ages, but anyway. I pretty much have to salute whenever he enters the room now.

SO, yes. Take a look at the RANT DOG shorts, they are pretty awesome. Up to now they have all been sort of unrelated, but this years are all part of one continuous narrative, whereby zombies emerge from the Alberta Tar Sands and all manner of hijinks ensue. Due to the nature of animation (ie it takes FRIGGING FOREVER) none of the work I have actually done has appeared yet. I think my stuff should start to appear in episodes 3-4, but I’m not sure. When you see a zombie stripper dancing, that was (partly) me.

Oh yes, and normal Deed The Inky service will resume Monday. Sorry again.
