How has this sat in my dropbox for so long w/o being on here? I’m sorry!

Greetings from TX.

Droste Effect GIFs

tommy — Tue, 05 Jan 2010 01:26:55 +0000

I made these Droste effect animations and put them on the Something Else boards long, long ago…

Some were Photoshop collabs. All were animated in Flash. Click on on them to see any pixels that may have gotten cut off. My head hurts…

Made by me and my co-worker Ben (who did, like, 90% of the actual work) using clay, Photoshop, and After Effects.

A 3mb Animated Gif

I posted this on the Something Else forums long ago and forgot about it…

Also, this marks the first time I’ve ever posted two things on the same day, rather than just waiting till the next day to post the next thing. This was too awesome for that.

Also, also, this blog has been around for over two years. Crazy.

Also, also, also, hi!

A hastily-crafted “proof of concept” cartoon I made last year for Something Else:

What a hack.

“Addicted to Love” Legs

tommy — Mon, 19 May 2008 01:21:07 +0000

This is what I was looking for last week when I was searching for something to put on the site. It’s not new, I know, but it’s still cool in my book.

It’s a motion-tweened, rotoscoped pair of lady’s legs from Robert Palmer’s “Addicted to Love.”

I made it a couple years ago, hoping to do something bigger with it, then got distracted and forgot about it. I lost the original Flash file in a fatal hard drive crash awhile later, but luckily had the exported animation backed up on an external hard drive.

Always back up your data, folks. More later.

Two updates in two days?! Blasphemy!

I played it in between some songs in my show the other day. It’s part of a series.

Fake G&M iTV Commercial

tommy — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 21:32:19 +0000

Here’s a fake* commercial I made for my Interactive TV class. I edited the images in Photoshop then animated them in After Effects. The voiceover is pretty horrible; I just used my laptop’s built-in mic. Oh, well. You can’t have everything.

The images were gleaned from morguefile.com and were taken by (in no particular order) Saffrodite, missyredboots, Slartibartfast, cohdra, xandert, gracey, jeltovski, hotblack, kevinrosseel, jpkwitter, and Jusben.

* Fake, in that we were experimenting with a new TV interface, and G&M was one of the companies allowing us to use their namesake in our test assets. We got no money from their “sponsorship.”

Here’s a quick animation of a character I made for the last two seconds of a sketch.

Huzzah! Stars all around!
