Sarah, Justine and I created this claymation bumper for our friend Matt's Saturday-Morning-Cartoon-Themed birthday party.  (A bumper, if you didn't know, is what you call the transition between tv program and commercial break.)  The birthday boy and his three roommates, painstakingly rendered in clay, star in our homage to this classic.

Here are the guys again on Matt's illustrated invites:

The party was really fun.  Guests munched on sugary cereal and watched shows like Thundercats and PeeWee's Playhouse on a giant, makeshift screen.  Matt even inserted vintage commercials (i.e. pound puppies, the original super soaker) for an authentic feel.  What a great theme for a party!

ribs soundtrack.

Matt Choi and I designed this album cover for Evan Mazunik's RIBS soundtrack.  Evan composed an original (gorgeous, moving, quirky) score for the 2008 modern dance production by Coriolis Dance Inc.  The album is available for purchase here

Here you can see the wrap-around effect.  The look and color palette for this project were inspired in part by this sign/experiment from a few years back.  I really love the crosshatch pattern on the cover--I drew it by hand and I think it lends a raw, organic quality to an otherwise sleek design.
