I too want to make it to the bizznitch! I just need to do school stuff first. Catch ya later Bills and Teds!

Pedro!

Ed Benedict died on Monday, August 28th. It really is a sad loss. He was a layout designer and character designer for the well-known Hanna-Barbera cartoons, MGM cartoons, TV commercials and other good things. I've always enjoyed his style of drawing and designing. I never knew too much about him, but his drawings really influenced me and they still do. I feel sorta sad about this 'cause when I was a kid I'd always draw the Flintstones, Yogi Bear, and other H-B characters alot and loved doing them. I've never wondered who created this style of design until I found out about him on Toonheads many many years ago. I really liked drawing in this style and I sometimes sneak in his designs in my own drawing sometimes. Check out John K.'s blog ( [link] )and read more into it.

Check out these links as well. They have some interesting drawings that Benedict's done during the golden age of animation!

This first one's called "Tales of Worm Paranoia" and was directed by Eddie Fitzgerald with some animated scenes by Bob Jaques!! It's amazing!

Now these here are classic gems! These are what I call cartoons!! They give me tingles up and down my spine every time I watch 'em!

Betty Boop-"Minnie The Moocher"

There's another Betty Boop called "The Old Man of the Mountain" in Youtube and unfortunately Devart isn't letting me give you this link 'cause there's a little smiley emoticon that appers in the middle of the link thing, which has an equal sign and an upper case "D". bleh! Basically it looks like this:

well it's been a while since i've said anything here. just got back from school for some turkey and holiday fun with the fam of course. I'm also doing some "storyboard" stuff for my own personal animated short i wanna do, which'll be 3-5 minutes long. nothing special, but since i've rarely touched my profile page I might as well put some drawings up to view my process for my animation. maybe i'll put up a blog for that, but for now i'll leave some stuff here.

well yep! now that i've learned a couple of more things about animation in school among w/ all the programs I've learned for animation I've thought of doing my first mini film for myself and waiting until my senior year to make one won't encourage me to animate now! but yeah for this thing I'll be doing some research a whole lot of heavy research and working on different things like making sure everything flows well so that it wouldn't be this humongous mess of crap! well actually ahhh why not this'll be my blog why waste it on another blog site. so yes i'll be putting my shizznizz here. and what's the purpose for doing this? well nothing really i just wanna post more new drawings and stuff cause it's been a while. i do miss posting my thingies!

on a side note! did you know that John K.'s doing a music video for Weird Al? it's too cool! i got this news a while back but i figured it'd be cool to tell those who don't know.

also the new set for looney tunes (i know old news) but i still can't get over the Gruesome Twosome cartoon and another one called Rumors which is a Snafu cartoon in the set. very cool stuff very inspiring. now i know how John K. feels about Clampett. when i saw the gruesome twosome cartoon i felt very inspired. I know i've seen it once during my childhood but seeing it again made me realize more about animation and cartooning and since i was inspired by this cartoon i also felt some envy cause the cartoon was so good and for some reason i felt like i couldn't be as good as clampett, but really i can be, which is something new i've learned.

crazy crazy stuff!!

About time too.

as you can see i've got new drawings up, and hopefully I'll put up more for the time being.
