Rejected Football Promo (Featuring John Mellancamp, America)

Today, Cracked.com is running an exclusive release of the newest Summer of Tears short, which also features Good Neighbor and Invisible Engine (which includes me). All three groups went to USC together, and nearly all of us are alumni of Commedus Interruptus, SC’s 20-year-old improv and sketch group.

This short represents the first time the three generations of us have gotten together to do something. A huge thanks to the Summer of Tears guys for including us on this one, and letting us be a part of this… challenging shoot. Regardless, it was a ton of fun, and I hope we all get to do something again soon.

May I present you this masterpiece and the most indicting short I’ve ever been a part of, starring Will Greenberg, Rob Kerkovich, Nick Massouh, Kirsten Eggers, Beck Bennett, Nick Rutherford, Sean Bury, Matt Wyatt, Babar Peerzada, and Sara Nixon-Kirschner.

NOW LET’S PLAY SOME FUCKIN’ FOOTBALL!!

Holy shit I love this. CHEVY TRUCKS!

teamtigerawesome:

Since Mike Parker won’t return our calls we had to Tumblr our notes.

I love the fact that this video is “work” for me. Technical notes about dancing and boners. I will be animating off of these notes.

And yes, I did call for a painter.

Not sure what made me think of this today…but I used to love my Sweet Pickles bus.

I also vividly remember that duck being crammed into the front seat in the beginning of the commercial.

Just a handful of the 8 billion or so Family Guy-esque characters for an upcoming CH sketch.

dangurewitch:

The Legend of Link’s Distractions, a new cartoon written by me and animated by Mike Parker. For anyone who’s ever liked the mini-games more than the game itself. Digg it.

Fun project to work on, really happy with the final product. Big help from Chase, Alex and Caldy!

hats off, sirs. HATS. OFF.

Extended Pixar Intro

I think this is one of the best things we’ve ever done. My hat is off to Dan who wrote it, Gloo studios who did the animation and Carl Sondrol who scored it.

Digg it if you dig it

Amazing job by everybody involved! Plus the video is super depressing! WEEEE!!!

Why my dad is funny - Part 2

Tue, 13 Oct 2009 00:10:36 -0400

Part of a conversation between my dad and I:

Me: Every place served avocados in California

Dad: Florida has avocados too.

Me: Yes. AND all kinds of oranges.

Dad: Yes. Like Valencia…and…Angel Hair

Me: Laughing hysterically.

Another reason my dad is funny

benjoseph:

Tamagotchi’s Deadbeat Dad, another live-action/animation hybrid. Considering Who Framed Roger Rabbit was one of my favorite movies as a kid, working on these is pure wish fulfillment. Written by Brian Murphy, animated by the ever-talented Mike Parker.

Digg it if you’ve ever tried to murder a Digipet.

Animating this Digipet/Zoloft looking guy was a lot of fun. I tried to make his expressions as dramatic as possible to fit the mood. My favorite is his expression right after he takes a dump at the end.

Found on a wall inside the guest locker room of the Dallas’ new stadium.

Amazing.

I love this. I would like to see a wider shot of it to confirm that it is indeed in Dallas’ new stadium and not just some bathroom stall at an New Jersey truck stop.

dangurewitch:

Star Fox in Iraq. I wrote and directed this sketch (my first time as a director at CH)! Dedicated to everyone who, like me, still has those animals’ voices ringing in their heads ten years after turning off their N64. Digg it.

I got to draw and animate all these annoying little animal pilots. A quick, fun project to work on.

About once a year I remember that this video exists, and every time I watch it, it blows my mind.
