Ulp! Time for an update! Just started a new animated series awhile back called I Am Robot You Are Not!. It’s a series that will go about 8-10 episodes at 10 minutes each. I’m designing and animating everything single-handedly so it’s taking some time. I enjoy the process though and it’s given me lots of excuses to watch old and new cartoons for inspiration (Speed Racer woooo!). Check out iamrobotyouarenot.com and The Killer Robots YouTube channel to learn more and watch the newest episodes.
Here’s a music video I did for The Killer Robots song, “Depressurization” sung by Samuel Williams AKA Strobo. Kudos to Mike McGowan AKA Max for providing drum patterns and Charles Harris AKA Trog for being there in spirit!
The animation is a combination of After Effects, Lightwave 3D and some live action background crowds.
Looking forward to more animation projects in the future!

Hey folks! It’s been a while, but lots of developments with The Killer Robots! Finally finished up The Killer Robots! Crash and Burn movie earlier this year. We’re currently working with a distributor to get it out into the world and are hoping for a mid-July release. Stay tuned for updates here and at killerrobots.tv. In the meantime here is the full length trailer!
Hey Folks! Here is the new teaser trailer for the upcoming Killer Robots movie. I’m currently working through the final shots and look forward to sending the movie out to festivals early next year.
Also the official killer robots website has been updated and reworked. Check it out at www.killerrobots.tv. There are also some new stills and behind the scenes photos from the movie.
I’m also looking forward to participating in this year’s first annual Orlando Nerdfest. Come out and see The Killer Robots live at the Orlando Airport Marriott at 12 noon.
I’ve just figured out that if I composite 10 different shots per day I should have a rough cut of the Killer Robots Next Movie by then end of December (2013). The workload is somewhat daunting but the notion that the film could be finished by February is inspiring.
Here’s a shot of some model work and compositing. I like the abstract form it takes on when frozen.
Until next time!
Just another Sunday afternoon waiting for a 4 second shot to render – 9 hours and 4 minutes to go. In the meantime I’ve been putting some thought into how how better to promote the new Killer Robots movie. Unfortunately, I’m not too fond of promoting. As someone hoping to be a successful artist and filmmaker, I realize this is something I should probably put more energy into.

So in the spirit of promotion, here is a shot of actor, Scott Yuken as a club-wielding barbarian battle machine. One of hundreds and the reason the above described shot is taking so long. Can you guess what recyclables were incorporated into this costume? This is of course assuming that Scott is not actually an android sent from the future to help us finish our movie.
Thanks for checking in. Next week, more stuff.
