I was informed via mass Facebook invite of The Weekend Pilots Live at Titmouse Inc., which was to take place on the night of Wednesday, December 12, 2012, or 12/12/12, the final day that three numbers will align until the next century. Discouraged by the ticket price and my lack of knowledge on the Weekend Pilots, I headed over to the band’s website to see what all the hubbub was… Read More »Recap of The Weekend Pilots Live at Titmouse Inc.
Seth MacFarlane’s birthday is coming up this Friday, so I thought I’d take a moment to share a video I captured of him one year ago today at his house in Beverly Hills. The occasion: a “Guys and Dolls”-themed birthday extravaganza with a celebrity guest list that included Aziz Ansari, Mel Gibson, Jonah Hill, and Topher Grace. It was a night made unforgettable by the pitch-perfect sound of Seth’s voice… Read More »Video: Seth MacFarlane singing “Luck Be a Lady”
I have a confession to make: I’m not a fan of “Adventure Time.” Yes, you read that right. The show doesn’t do anything for me. Oh, I can watch it, alright – seen a couple of episodes, had a few laughs. I’m just not excited enough about it to merit falling out of my chair in anticipation of the newest episode, or forking out 27 bucks for the DVD set.… Read More »Oootopia: An Artgebraic Tribute to Adventure Time and Hansel & Gretel
Instagram photo collage of the opening receptions for Oootopia: An Artgebraic Tribute to Adventure Time and Hansel & Gretel by Junko Mizuno last Saturday, August 18. I’ll talk about them in more detail on Thursday’s post.
The Fox TV Animation crew visited Rough Draft Studios yesterday, as part of an invitation from “Futurama” producer Claudia Katz to meet visual futurist and concept artist Syd Mead. I was among those in attendance, but to be truthful, I was not aware of who Syd Mead was until I received the invitation in my work Entourage on Monday. As someone who has been wanting to check out “Blade Runner”… Read More »Fox TV Animation crew meets Syd Mead at Rough Draft Studios
Last Friday, July 20, the “Family Guy” crew hit up Pacific Theatres at the Grove for the 8:30 showing of “The Dark Knight Rises.” Some photos from the event: The crew, minus assistant director Mark Covell, who totally ninja’d his way out of this photo like the closet ninja he is. Back row (left to right): Pete Michels, Michael Upperco, Brent Crowe, Jason Weitzner, Shannon Smith, some friend of Shannon’s,… Read More »“Family Guy” goes to see “The Dark Knight Rises”: a photo essay
Forgot that there was no Figure Invention for Animation class yesterday, so I took a walk around Pasadena looking for a place to draw and have dinner, and eventually found it on the patio of AKA Bistro. Perfect choice because the patio was elevated to a considerable degree, and overlooked a square where people sat on tables and benches that were neither too close nor too far from where I… Read More »AKA Bistro sketch photos
Last Saturday, I, along with my LMU schoolmate Laura Robinson, attended the opening reception for the All Together Now: A Tribute to the Beatles art show over at Gallery Nucleus. I first heard about the show through Brigette Barrager’s blog, where she posted up “Fab Four,” her piece for the show. I was in love as soon as I saw it. Her depiction of the Beatles in her vintage Little… Read More »All Together Now: A Tribute to the Beatles art show

Running late on this one, so I’ll keep this short for now. Celebrated the season finales of “Family Guy” and “The Cleveland Show” with a few of my co-workers over at “Family Guy” producer Shannon Smith’s house. I’ll update this with a better description and photos by Thursday’s post. Stay tuned!
