Scrubs

I got to work on a couple of spots for Comedy Central in the fall of 2006.

Working with Writer/Producer Dave Drabik we came up with 4 spots.

What struck me about working with the session materials was how well organized and sensible everything was. The graphics, the voice talent, the style guide. Everything was organized in a very logical and easy to execute fashion. I have a lot of respect for those in charge of putting together this network's look.

Stroker & Hoop

Stroker & Hoop was created by Chris Kelly and Jeff Olsen of Cartoon Network. This was the second animated series that I worked on. I always thought the show was smart and funny and really fit the AdultSwim format. That's why I'm still not sure why the show only ran for a single season. The production model for the show closely follow the template we used for most of the Harvey Birdman Attorney at Law episodes.

Batman: The Animated Series

Batman: The Animated Series originally air on FOX. I think Warner Bros. picked up the series in syndication following a less than stellar first run. It's a beautiful cartoon and had great action sequences to work with. Kevin Mason, writer/producer for Cartoon Network, worked with me on this project.

TCM-City

TCM has always branded classic movies well. Here is a great example of using some well known and some not so well known clips from the TCM library to craft an image of the "TCM-City."

Samurai Jack

I worked with Writer/Producer Matt McElhannon on this spot to promote the Cartoon Network original series Samurai Jack.

I always loved the look of this cartoon. For some reason it never took off the way I thought it could have. Some of the backgrounds are hanging on the walls at Cartoon Network. They are really quite beautiful works of art that can easily stand alone.

Sick Day

SickDay was just a fun little spot that writer/producer Billy Cone came up with.
At the time, live action promos were the only content on the network that wasn't animation. I think it was through the success of promos like these that the network has gradually moved more and more into live action show and content.

Fancy Anvils

The Fancy Anvil Awards
This was a pretty enormous stunt to put together. Writers Steve Patrick, Stuart Hill and Matt Peccini put together a mock awards show for Cartoon Network. In addition to editing many segments with old TV stars, the cartoon presenters all had to be lip-flapped and composited on stage.
