Grey Valentine

by

When I made the couch video there were two versions: one with Jim Dine’s poem that I eventually released and this one combining some Zipperhead whiteboard animations using this song I wrote with Natalie.  Finally got around to uploading the alternate take for Valentine’s day.  My ex referred tot he song as :  caterwalling,  but I still like it and want to recored it properly some day.

Death Cards For Willoughby

Deathcards2

double_u UU sends cards for dead Mexican Kings my way and it made me think how much I’m playing cards these days.  I’ve been spending a lot of time editing Cage with Dave S. and that feels like a poker game half the time.  I’ve also been trying to storyboard Willoughby which feels like a card game too, in the sense of discreet rectangle pictures laid out like solitaire.  More hands to come!

While in a four month fever dream of animating Pain, I also shot some flip vid (much was lost in a tragic language change to French in my interface, but that is a different story) of goings on at Frost, etc. There is some Jillian Salik, some comedy nght, so x box, some editing Cage, and the world premiere of Pain in the garden on an airflow screen.

Pain

by

And after much Pain:
An Animation for Donald Johnson’s song Pain. I made over 2,000 individual images iin Photoshop in an attempt to make something like a handmade digital animation. I call the characters cogs. They aren’t cats and they aren’t dogs and they aren’t people. They are part of a narrative machine.

Song written and sung by Donald Johnson
Music arranged, played, and produced by Javier Hernandez-Miyares
Art and Animation by Alex Itin
