I'm a professional animator and aspiring illustrator. In my spare time I rock climb, paint, animate, travel, and enjoy the company of good friends. I also geek out over tabletPC's... cause mobile wacom cintiqs are sexy.

I'm working on this cool side project for fun in my spare time between other bigger projects, (I got way too many ideas and commitments) that takes photoshop illustrations I do from scratch and then imports them into flash, making it all into separate symbols, and animating them in a realistic manner. It's looking and working waaaay better than I anticipated. I feel as though I have stumbled upon a very unique style and method that would prove to be very effective and pretty. I love when I can utilize flash in unorthodox ways. I like to look for ways to make flash animation look.. non-flashy. More classical or different. I'll look for a way to post my findings sometime, but I would like to save the unveiling for some sort of project where I use the style in a short story or something.
thanks newgrounds for the award! I'm beginning to feel a part of a community or something. geez.

till next time, keep fit and have fun! (Cheesy 80's music follows)

Sounds interesting!
I used to do a lot of drawing in Illustrator and bring it into Flash but sometimes it would slow things down. Maybe it was just my computer.

I look forward to seeing your work!

I like your animation, I suck at flash animation. So I tryed to do pencil paper, I have the frames, no way to get it on the computer.
But I like how you have different styles, not just one. Good luck and looking forword to seeing more of your work.
