You never really change, like they say...

Here's a brand new Jane's Addiction video I worked on recently.

It's for their new single "End to the Lies" from their upcoming album "The Great Escape".

It was directed by Alex Bulkley and produced by Victoria Howard of Shadow Machine Films.

I was the Animation Director.

Warning: There is some brief nudity so NSFW, but it's tastefully done. 

Anyway, you've been warned.

Check it out!


This job was a fun and intense run, with a great cast and crew!  I'm happy with how it turned out.

Thanks to everyone who was involved!

I'll be posting some behind the scenes pictures shortly.  Keep an eye out!

Get in and Let's Go-o-o!

Here is the video for Foo Fighters new song "Miss the Misery"

It was directed by Pete Levin, and produced by Andrew Ahn.

I served as Animation Director.

Take a gander!


Creepy, cool and fun!

We had an abosolute great cast & crew including some of my current and former students from both CalArts and USC.

For a complete list of credits, some behind the scenes pics and a note or two about Pete's influences for the look of the video, please check out his blog.

(Also thanks to Jerry Beck of cartoonbrew.com for the thoughtful post about the video!)

Working on this video was one of the most enjoyable experiences of my career thus far!

I'll be posting a few of my own behind the scenes pics in a bit.

You might miss the misery, but you won't want to miss those pics!  Keep your eyes peeled!
