Shaun

Friend: "s'il te plaît, dessine-moi un mouton"

So I drew a Shaun.

Fio

I love Fio from Porco Rosso. Who doesn't?

McManus

I love this movie.

Team Leaders '13

A statement to our SIGGRAPH student volunteer Team Leaders colleagues that my super awesome partner, Muunuu, and I are gonna rock not only our venues but also the parties ;) In fact I first officially met Muunuu at the Chapters Party back in 2009 and been friends since then!

I've been listening to Daft Punk within the last couple days. Hence the reference (and my friends already took all the best movies and puns possible!) 

SIGGRAPH 2013 is only 3 months away! It's gonna be a blast as always!

Happy birthday, Super Adam!

A couple years ago Adam gave birth to Jeff the Robot, and his friend, a boy named Mo. So I drew a fanart and added the creation process on the covers of a moleskine sketchbook I gave to Super Adam Holmes for his birthday today!

I wrote with ink on the inside cover, hence it is a real deal contract with my impossible-to-copy-signature, that if within 6 months he fill up all of this little sketchbook pages, I'd get him a piece of cake. To think about it, that's totally too long of a given time, that made me too generous!! This sketchbook is small! I'm now regretting it but I already wrapped it up. Well, the size of the piece of cake wasn't stated... heheh.

Anyway, if you haven't seen Adam's film featuring Jeff the Robot, you definitely should check it out here! He finished this film while also being our loyal TA, in fact, he was our TA for 2 years in a row (total 6 quarters in a row). He really was a super TA and saved some of us who had problems throughout our filmmaking process. 

He's also a very good friend and an amazing artist/designer too! FYI, he wears those type of glasses that totally makes him look like Clark Kent. My classmates made a legit Super Adam TShirt this past summer, and for sure I own one too :)

Jojo

My professor told me watch Jojo in the Stars and he said I'd like it.

And I did. It's a very beautiful 12 minute film, written & directed by Marc Craste. Better watch it when all the lights are off and you're about to go to bed, like I did. It slipped my mind that I'd get a nightmare :)

IQ

I read GOGO Monster yesterday and I liked it a lot!
This character's nickname is IQ. He always wears a cardboard box on his head.
