Tony White has posted a version of his short film “Endangered Species” for viewing on YouTube.  It’s a mockumentary of the rise and fall of traditional animation.  The animation in the piece is well executed.  The pace is good and the content of the story is interesting and compelling.  The most creative part of the film is how Tony mimics snippets of well-known animations using Tony’s well-known animation character in a delightfully playful way. 

Toon Zone posted a really comprehensive interview with Tony in 2006 about the “Endangered Species” animation and its inspiration.   

In the interview, Tony mentions his ill-fated ”Animation Masterclass” book.  This was the book that Tony consulted with Matt Tamaru (Rodriguez at the time) on Flash character animation.  Unfortunately, ”Animation Masterclass” never did see the light of day. 

Here’s the film.  I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Holiday wishes from our Scottish friends Radio Magnetic and Tommy Perman.  Because “if it’s not Scottish, it’s crap.”

What drives Knoxville’s most famous cartoonist? Total fear. 

Check out this inspiring article from Metro Pulse about our friend Joel Trussell and his rise to success as an animator. Way to go Joel!

I know it’s late, but I thought I’d post a video of last year’s Plexipixel Christmas Party.

Here is the Weird Al rendition of crunk master Chamillionaire’s “Ridin’ (Dirty)”. Al really knows how to flow. This is the funniest thing I’ve seen in a while.
