Been looking and digging around for free illustrated mascots for your site? Chances are you probably have had to pay for them, or be locked down by hidden restrictions.

Well away with all of that nonsense! Here's a little pack of fellows absolutely free for you to use, …

How to Lose Friends & Alienate

How to Lose Friends & Alienate People was surprisingly entertaining, and awkward to order a ticket for at the counter. It's an old release now, but I love Simon Pegg. The story follows the path of a journalist, who chases his big shot job in a New York celebrity …

Background design

A background design for No Recipe that I put together. We've been aiming for a UPA Ren & Stimpy x Dexter's Lab feel for the shape and colour style. One more week of work till it's ready to go!

007: Quantum of Solace

Strangely enough, the trailer caught me by surprise; because I hadn't seen or heard too much about the film, except for the couple of freakish accidents that occurred during the shooting. I was fortunate to catch this one before the public premiere.

Max Payne in the anus

I went into it expecting it to suck- and it did. I don't know why Mark Wahlberg agreed to do this film. He didn't look like a Max (if that can be said). It could have also been because I watched The Happening a few days before, and his character was some nerdy …

Saw V

I don't even know why I saw it. Maybe because I'd seen all the other ones.. It's like that feeling you get when you watch one great episode of a crappy tv series and get hooked into watching the rest- no matter how crappy it is.

I had two gripes with Saw V. The first …

Happy Freaking Birthday!

Whatevs Lisa. I told you I would write this when you joked about it. You are a blogger so eat this post.

The world has been lucky enough to have you for another whole year full of fantastic laughs, adventures and piles of fun. Go wonder amongst the gangs of moose, …

More twitter birds!

The Adventures of Super

A film made with 3 kids from St Brendan's Primary School (Brisbane) as part of a university initiative. We created a story together , illustrated, and put it into animation. It was a difficult challenge dealing with a school where English is often a secondary …

Dashing along

No Recipe is close to done! Here's a partial test of another one of the many silly shots.

Pseudo:Part 1

A rough 1st half of an animatic for a 3d film I am going to produce next year, called Pseudo. I always thought mimes were creepily entertaining and funny, so pitting two of them together has to produce something interesting right? I figure that it would be pretty …

7 steps to client

Keep your customers happy!

Yes, an article about business. I get a lot of questions from peers and followers about dealings with clients, so I decided to explain some ideas to get the ball rolling. If you are a freelancer, you have the freedom to pick the jobs you …

ConnectNow

This web app is seriously the most handy dandy screen sharing app I've come across in a long time- and it's free! It's got webcam, voice chat, filesharing, a whiteboard and public chat functionality built in. Adobe has released it as a free service (Captivate used to …

Illustrative Inspirations

Illustration is a powerful medium inside design. It can add life, personality and vitality to whatever it accompanies, while remaining beautifully decorative in context. An age old art; style in illustration is constantly evolving, providing a rich array of …

Gators

Eagle Eye

I didn't have high hopes for this one, but it was still a good way to kill some summery movie hours. With that being said, it wasn't a film to remember at all. Centered around the idea of the US governments bitching and whining lady …

Two gentlemen

It's fun pulling out sketchbook doodles and putting paint onto them. I'm still exploring, but working traditionally is really fun and messy!

Gouache on cartridge.

Banana surprise!
