Near Death Experience!! 6000 ft. up in Sequoia National Forest(Gasp!).

2009-12-14T03:19:00.010-05:00

Toby Corolla got stuck in an ice patch on a winding highway 6000 ft up in the air. After a few speeding cars failed to pay attention to our signals to slow down, Martini Lancer lost control...slipping on the ice, hitting Toby into the side of the mountain. We jumped out of the way.

Martini's drivers were ok...then..MORE CARS veer out of control, nearly go off the edge of the mountain and barely miss us.
Then Jeepers Wrangledemon comes around the bend, totally shitfaced...skidding all over the road (see below).

We jump out of the way again..it clips my car and goes into a ditch, stopping short of a few trees.

I help Ruiz(f) out of the Wrangledemon...unaffected by the chaos, Ruiz(m) proceeds to make small talk and comment on how the paint damage they caused to Toby Corolla "aint nothin".

Police reports are filed..everyone is walking and breathing after this debacle. We all kick salt under our tires and start our journey back to the visitor's center to relax and eat some food. Ruiz(f) needs to use the restroom and hitches a ride in the Police car while Jeeper's Wrangledemon and Ruiz(m) wait for a tow truck.

Ruiz and her tiny bladder disappear into the night. We never see her arrive at the visitor's center. Swallowed by dark trees, who knows.

On the way home, we avoid an army of cows trekking up the highway (thanks Lubo)..

After a series of events involving my GPS..we end up in an empty parking lot in Visalia.

He was waiting for us I'm sure. His eyes were like marbles, devoid of anything familiar. He would have chewed through my driver seat window if I had not instinctively taken off.

When I got home, I ate pecan pie. It tasted so damn good.

but I never finished building that NASA space shuttle model because it required paint, glue, and elbow grease. I didnt have none of that..only lego skills.

Annecy 08

2008-08-26T23:59:00.027-04:00

Me and Olga went on an amazing trip this past June. My student film, Key Lime Pie, was selected for competition in Annecy, which gave me an excuse to pack my bags and check out France for a week. Ive posted some pics and sketches from my trip.

My film's screening in La Grand Salle.

For a moment I forgot how to spell Annecy..I had to write it down three times with varying amounts of "N's" and "C's", and eventually some sort of visual trigger went off and I was able to circle the correct spelling. I was so proud of myself..

Tony

On the way home, this man was escorted off our plane by federal agents. They spent 20 minutes cleaning his seat afterwards. It was odd.
I swear these two were clones. They were looking at softcore porn on the plane and were quite comfortable doing so. It was humbling.

Its my little sister's B day today..shes turning 15. She likes to draw, and she has an unhealthy obsession with monkeys....purty freaking cool if you ask me.
Happy B day sis, just because you're old now doesn't mean you can stop drawing!
IM WATCHING YOU.

Based on a True Story.

2008-03-11T09:26:00.004-04:00

So thats supposed to be Olga.
One day, Olga had this dream about tomato sour dough bread...which I don't think actually exists. Anyway, she was really groggy and tired when she was explaining this concept to me one morning, slurring words and not really making any sense. Luckily I was taking notes the whole time.
So then I got to drawing, and I gave her sharp teeth(which signify some sort of intense appetite or hunger). Her eyes are indeed focused on what appears to be sour dough bread with fresh tomato slices on top. So im like, yeah..its all coming together. All it needs now is some purple text. So I did that too, and voila...I make art.

I did this on the weekend.

BLOOOOG VOOOMMMITTTTTTTTT!!!

2007-10-18T01:51:00.000-04:00

Me and some friends tried to start a sketchblog called Latin American Dictator Sandwiches. Jeff was the only brave soul to post something. I finally scanned mine in after drawing it 4 1/2 months ago. Anyway...I think one day well get that sucker going. Till then, you can check out two whole sketches at http://www.fidelonrye.blogspot.com/

SO this is old news to some, but the Raptors lost in 6 games to their first round playoff opponent..the New Jersey Nets(They should relocate to Maryland and call themselves the Baltimore Basketballs!)

So began a 5 month depression, where I couldn't eat, sleep, or draw. I did however start working..at a place called the House of Cool. And we just got a new website, so check it out:

http://www.houseofcoolstudios.com/

All those thingys above these words are pages from my sketchbook this summer. I know I havent been posting, but it hasn't stopped me from drawing, or thinking of more film ideas.

In fact, Ive got another one on the way. Its called the Bermuda Triangle, and lotsa stuff happens in it.

For those who want to know, "Key Lime Pie" has been doing really well. So far its played at the Toronto International Film festival student showcase, The Montreal World Film Festival, Cinefest Sudbury, Ottawa International Animation festival, Barrie Film festival, and it will be playing at the Toronto After Dark Festival(http://www.torontoafterdark.com/) next wednesday Oct 24th, before the feature "Nightmare Detectives" at the Bloor Cinema, and the AFI filmfest in LA(http://www.afi.com/), as well as making an appearance in STASH DVD magazine for issue 38.

It picked up a best cinematography award at the TIFF student showcase, and 1st place in the most promising student category at the Teletoon scholarships. Overall the response has been really great..and more than anything, really encouraging.

Other than that, my summer was good...i moved to downtown Toronto, and I live with a tall Irish guy.

I hate the New Jersey Nets

thats a wrap

2007-04-26T03:36:00.000-04:00

Well, i figured i had to post something to coincide with the end of my college career. 5 years..what can one say? A picture's worth a thousand words, i wonder what a 3:32 short film with 24 pictures per second is worth?

I guess the answer should be in there somewhere.

To my classmates, and my good friends...congrats on finishing your time here. I wish you all the best in whatever you choose to do,

its been something else.

Heres some more life drawing, from my last portfolio for Gerry. I usually dont write back in my own comments section, so I just wanted to say thanks for all the encouraging comments people have left in the past, it is very much appreciated. Heres to a productive and fun last semester of of life at Sheridan, good luck to everyone working hard on their films.

Concept from my grad film

2006-12-12T23:49:00.000-05:00

Its a pretty good time to update on the progress of my film, Key Lime Pie. I just finished my animatic, ive got a few small changes but for the most part ive got something i can move forward with. Right now im trying to establish the overall look of the film, so heres my first layout concept; Times square all key lime pie'd up. Expect more posts very soon, in the meantime id love some feedback.

Elephants and Life Drawings

2006-10-30T09:39:00.000-05:00

So ive been busy working on my film, Key Lime Pie, which is coming along. In the meantime, i thought i would post some new lifedrawing and some elephant sketches(they brought an elephant to our school). Hopefully in a couple of weeks I can post some work from my film.

The Good Ol Days

2006-09-30T01:17:00.000-04:00

NBA season is starting up soon, and im feeling optimistic about my Toronto Raptors this year..Ive been watching them religiously since 1995 when they first came into the league, back when this guy was manning the paint for them. I remember lining up for an hour to get "The Big O's" autograph at the Sports Authority grand opening where I used to live only to find out that he had cancelled his signing. Tracy Murray showed up instead and signed my free sports authority hat, which is probably kicking around in my Mom's basement somewhere. Anyway, just wanted to share a thought completely unrelated to art or film. Go Raptors.

KEY LIME PIE

2006-09-05T03:01:00.000-04:00

Well, ive got a name for my film; "Key Lime Pie"..and this is my first run of serious concept work for it. Its my own spin on the noir genre, and the story basically revolves around this character who is obsessed with key lime pie. I did some early concept back in May for the film, and these are essentially redesigned versions of the characters that were previously posted.
For those of you who are interested, Key Lime pie is my favourite dessert, so if youre ever organizing a birthday party for me...you can probably score some bonus points if you buy a key lime pie from your local grocery store and stick twenty something candles in it.

A personal note: I just wanted to pay some respect to my friend Jeff Thompson, who is currently recovering from a serious hand injury. I cant say enough about Jeff, just a really great friend and a really talented artist. Ive worked with him on most of the projects ive been involved with, and being around him just makes me a better artist. His work can be seen on characterdesign.blogspot.com, and his blog is linked right.
Heres to a speedy recovery...

Hey everyone, this will be my first post from BC. Im here with a few friends working at Studio B for the summer. So it took me awhile to get all settled in and do some new work to post here.
This is some early concept for my film next year...im attempting to put my own spin on the film noir genre. Much more change to come...

Old work, and some people worth mentioning..

2006-03-08T13:22:00.000-05:00

Big post here...Ive been working long hours of the film since jan, so its been hard to get together new pieces. I thought id post some existing work i had laying around. I wanted to mention a few people who really helped me out at Sheridan in the last few years and were vital in my development as an artist. Robin Joseph, Bernard Joaquin, Ben Plouffe, and Linton Joseph are all linked right. They were as good as almost any teacher I had at the school, so i wanted to mention them all in this post. Above are some longer poses from lifedrawing which were used in my newest portfolio. The second image are a bunch of crocodile designs that I did right before my second year which I tightened up a bit just recently. The last piece was a digital painting I did from the movie lost in translation, also in the summer before second year while plouffe was teaching me how to digital paint(i had no knowledge of photoshop before). Im not crazy about the scarlett johansson portrait, but I was really happy with the bill murray back when i finished it. Anyway, back to animating Bazo. And check out all four people mentioned, all have blogs with great work.

Life Drawing Portfolio

2006-02-17T11:32:00.000-05:00

I felt like posting some of my lifedrawing, since we have a portfolio due around this time. Recently ive been playing around with my linework and starting to dabble into colour. I checked out a really great Schiele exhibit when I visited NY in december. One room had 20 or 30 works that he had done right after leaving art school, and it was just a really great experience to see them in person. I wanted to mention Gerry Zeldin(my third year life drawing instructor) as well, who manages to create a great class environment where the students that take part are encouraged to grow and develop as artists. He has been hands down one of the best instructors I've ever had at Sheridan college, and Im sure that many other Sheridan Animation Alumni who were taught by Gerry can attest to the same thing.

BAZO EXPLOSION!

2006-02-06T12:32:00.000-05:00

Its been awhile since I posted last, I hope people are still stopping by. It feels like we just got over a major hump with our film, "Bazo". We changed the story, art direction, basically gave the film an overhaul. Needless to say, Im a lot happier with what weve got going. These are the new designs for the main character I came up with. Let me know what you think.
To see more work from the film, check out Casper Konefal's blog, linked right.

Musical Toby

2006-01-05T12:09:00.000-05:00

Its been awhile since ive posted...This is a quick sketch from awhile back. Me and my good pal Jeff Thompson wanted to try memory sketching out at the Royal Winter Fair. We spotted this interesting character playing air guitar, bobbing his head to country music with supreme confidence. I'll have some new work up in the near future, Happy New Year.

thats a giant sun...in case you dont know

2005-12-13T21:44:00.000-05:00

Hey people, this is the project thats been keeping me so busy these days. Ill be posting a lot more artwork related to this film in the near future. But for now, heres a concept piece for the world in which this story takes place in. Thats a giant robotic sun right there....and yes, a giant arachno-moon will come into play...maybe theyll fight. More to come.

Second Year Work.

2005-12-03T18:33:00.000-05:00

Its been extremely busy at school with deadlines, so im posting some old work.
This was a character i developed for my second year lip sync project at Sheridan. The basic story involved a moose in need of direction while travelling in London, but he soon finds out that British people dont speak "moose".

This is some concept for the film ill be working on this year, its being directed by my friend Casper Konefal, who hasnt joined the blog craze yet, but should, because people need to see his pretty pretty work. More Bazo to come.

Umbrella Boy

2005-10-15T16:27:00.000-04:00

I worked on a film called "Umbrella Boy" over the summer with 8 friends from school. We spent 4 months on it and in my opinion ended up with something pretty decent. This is some early concept work I did. Ill try and post the film at some point.

Astronauts can ride bikes too...
