Recovered files/Older art

I forgot how awesome this poster is:

This is an old T-shirt design I'd done for a now defunct company. It should read "Once Upon a Time in Copyright Infringement Land.

I did this up in response to those Che shirts you see. Most of the people who wear those don't even know who he is; I suppose they don't know who Don Knotts is either, so this is just as good.

This was the most popular T-shirt design I ever did. Thousands were made. Sure it's a ridiculous concept, but let's see you anthropomorphise sharks and have them still recognizable caricatures of famous people.

Oh, that West Coast aquarium...

Dead and Gone

a 'film' by Jeff Hanni.

I wasn't present at the premiere, but I'm told there were plenty of gasps and laughter at the end comment, so: Mission Accomplished!

It's a great thing to get the reaction you'd hoped and planned for. Really, that's the whole reason for filmmaking, not just to tell your story, but to get an emotional response from it.

So this was what the get-up in the previous post was about.

I made myself a top hat

It's a decent top hat Frankensteined from two crappy ones. I made it for an upcoming film I'm making. I intended the sewing to be boggered just to make it passable, but my mascot making training took over and all the stitching is pretty high-end, far more so than it needs to be.

I'll post the final film here once it's premiered.

It's been a while!

...but I assure you, I haven't been idle.

I've been painting a mural in a nursery room out of town.

No, I won't do one for you. I do caricature commissions though, you know that, but murals are way to labour intensive to do on the side.

I've also been doing some cool video tests toward making a new film:

Gears & Beers 'poster'

...for the Calgary Steampunk monthly meetup.

and for practice.
