One of my #BirdsOfPrey scenes. I was super lucky to get to animate alongside @joeCARTOONguy , @Hayk_Animation , @brockadile , and @Yeaunganimation ! Feels like traditional animation is making a huge comeback! #HarleyQuinn #2danimation #toonboomharmony

Hey everyone! I'm slowly starting a YouTube channel. I'll post 5 times a week (every weekday) until I get through most of my stuff. The goal is to eventually post originals, but we'll see. youtu.be/ExxlEjoJhoo?si=EZIo… via @YouTube

If anyone told me my SpongeBob-middle-finger-gag drawing would not only live on to be animated 25 years later, but also be seamlessly animated and inserted into that same obscure commercial, I never would have believed it. Absolutely surreal!

DELETED SCENE. The first scene I animated for "Fixed", and it was CUT! This scene was originally not too long after Bull's owner put that tennis ball in his mouth, so he's spitting it away. In edit, they realized they didn't need it... so I'm sharing it here.

A longer scene I animated in "Fixed". This one has a common animation cheat of animating the main characters walking in place while slowly scaling down the bg.

More of my "FIXED" animation. I had so much fun doing this. Animating this kind of character with all of those folds and floppy ears and stuff is just a blast and doesn't come around often.

Another one of my Fixed scenes. It was fun to animate scenes with multiple characters-- their mouth shapes were all so different

Ok, this exact shot here is where I knew I needed to step it up! I watched it over and over. That little additional motion in Honey’s head killed me! @OleLoken is amazing!
Another shot in the same sequence as the previous post. I remember the Dialogue of Bull changed at some point in the production, so I had to re-animate him.

"Fixed" comes out today! People either love it or are angry at it. Here's some animation of mine. I loved working on it. Genndy was amazing, the crew was friendly, kind, and welcoming, and you really wanted to do the best work you could possibly do.

My animation of Pinky and the Brain for the Wakko's Wish ReWished collab! I intentionally did everything I was told not to do on the series. I was told no thick and thin line... no dot eyes in boards... not too much After Effects... not too flat and graphic...
Check out this AMAZING scene animated by the very talented Scott O’Brien!! @optimusscotto #Animaniacs #WakkosWish #WakkosWishReWished

My Bugs Bunny rough animation for a new "Warner Bros Studio Tour Hollywood" commercial. I don't get to animate much anymore, so whenever something comes up I jump at the chance

I was in junior high when I saw the original Macross (as Robotech), and it blew my mind. They never released a Robotech version of the movie and that pisses me off, so last night I said screw-it and cut this damn clip together myself just to see what it'd look like.

Happy 20th Anniversary to Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi! It was my first boarding/directing job and I had no idea what I was doing. Here’s a clip from my fave episode but in Japanese #hihipuffyamiyumi #CartoonNetwork
