somebody i used to know
I've been working quite extensively in my sketchbook as of late, here's some pages. Super delicious cookie points to anyone who can name the either the second or third fellow (without clicking to check the file name, that's cheating. Don't cheat.)
This bottom one here is very much in process. I'll do a post after the holidays to show the evolution of the page. Anyhoooo, as I won't be seeing you til the new year... Happy Christmas/Festive Thing You Celebrate or Choose Not to Celebrate (whatevs) and Happy New Year! To a wonderful 2012, eh?

2010 Year in Review
Hi all-
So, work! A lot of you have been wondering what I've been up to at the ole JibJab, so I thought I would post some of my additions to the 2010 Year in Review. These are always fun, because the last two years we've been doing them in a more handmade style, rather than purely digital, or live action, like most of our content.
For the most part, I created whatever the animators needed extra help with in the sewing department- everything from puppet hands (I think there's only one or two in the entire short I didn't end up making) to Oval Office curtains to American and Gay Pride flags, to a TON of finger puppets and just random little dudes to fill up background scenes. I also helped paint and puppeteer some of the smaller scenes. Lots of it goes by very fast, but I grabbed some of my scenes below.
It was especially fun getting to work with Justin again, as he did most of the concept and visual development we ended up using for the puppets and backgrounds.
Here's some shots from the short of my puppets.
This is the American flag I was asked to make. It actually has all 13 stripes and all 50 stars. WOOT. AMERI-CUH! I also sewed a gay pride flag (twice) and it was RIDICULOUSLY hard to make. You would think 6 stripes would be easier, but no. No sir. You would be wrong. The puppets in this scene were created by Romney.
This is a background that actually got cut from the final, but it's the Oval Office I helped make curtains for.
Evan also did a behind-the-scenes blog, so you can see some of the concept and better shots of my work right here, and check out allllll the content right here.
Other than that, I've been playing lots of Wii and trying to finish up my book for the Sketchbook Project. It's due in about 2 weeks, and I only have 4 pages left! Woo! So, with that, I bid you adieu and Merry Christmas! (And since this is likely my last post of 2010, let's throw a Happy New Year in there, too!)
