Essman and Rall tackle political toons

Posted by Robert to Animation Show Journal at 10:12pm

Animator David Essman teamed up with political satirist Ted Rall at the beginning of 2009 and have cranked out an impressive series of shorts through their web channel on Youtube. David has been a HUGE champion of the Animation Show over the years with everything from film research to on-the-ground help in Chicago and Florida. Hit up his personal Youtube channel for a peak at more of his work. I was a big fan of “The Ugly Turkey” when David had shared it back in 2006 and it's cool to see his style shift and evolve. We’re continuing the conversation in our newly (nearly finished) refurbished forums.

We’ll continue to gush over here about Shane Acker’s new animated feature “9” pretty much until it’s release on 09-09-09. And this latest international trailer does not disappoint. New story details continue to spread online though the 9 Facebook, and 9 Experiment pages. We talked with Shane waaay back in 2007 when the “9” short was a part of our third theatrical program.

Animation Show Forum Upgrade

Posted by Robert to Animation Show Journal at 9:57pm

A much needed upgrade was finally installed to our aged, worn out Animation Show forums today.  The previous Invision grid was installed sometime back in 2002 so there are lots of fancy bells and whistles i'll never begin to figure out.  BUT this should cut back on the spam which is why it's been so hard to post in that space and why it hasn't ever grown properly.  So take a minute and head on in to a safer (temporarily blander looking) Animation Show Forum.  (test -f2ykams8ng)
