Psyop's Coke "Happiness Factory" is out!

Maybe I can't show you One Rat Short online, but the Coke spot I worked on at Psyop has quickly made its way around the web already! I just saw the final 60 second version for the first time yesterday, and wow, was I amazed at what they did with it! I mean, I of course had seen a lot of the renders already and as an animator was well aware of how many characters there were--but seeing it with sound and music--I was completely blown away. (I don't feel bad saying that, cause I all I did was the animation part!) Without further ado, here's a link:

If you go to a movie this summer, chances are you may see this there as it will be played in 87% of the theatres across the nation! I really can't believe that I've been so lucky to work on these two projects at Charlex and Psyop. I'm not exactly sure how it happened. Friends, faith, luck and timing I guess.

Lastly: Fill up the flux capacitor, charge your proton packs, accelerate to Warp 9--SIGGRAPH 2006 is coming up! Any scaddies out there who want to meet up in Boston, be sure to drop me an email.

Later!
