TAAFI 2016 was a huge success!


Priceless souvenirs from our happy speakers! It was an honour to be their liaison! So happy to have brought my friend from the Spumco chat palace days, Michael Rianda to speak about storytelling and Gravity Falls! Everyone was a huge hit!


Old chat room friends united, Michael Rianda and yours truly

It was Michael's idea for us all to jump

Fascinated by Eric Goldberg's drawing ability.

Running around with my speakers all weekend was some of the best time I've ever had!

Hot Wheels: "A mega race! That no one will ever forget"

Since I've started working full time in animation (over 4 years now) I really haven't spent much time blogging. I wanted to update this space with some of my favorite animation drawings from one of my favourite projects, Team Hot Wheels.
