Character Studies
Skeletal Systems of Twenty Two Past & Present Cartoon Characters.
Also, this Korean art exhibit takes the concept one step further by creating not just images, but the physical skeletal systems of popular animated characters. Check out that Road Runner!

The Devil Went Down To Georgia
Six years before Michael Johnson co-directed Corpse Bride he was animating/directing commercials and music videos, here's one of my favorites he did for Primus.

Spinning
Late one night in animation college, 8 years ago...
Me, Ben, and our camera man, Jeff decided to film me spinning on a floor buffer left unattended at 3am in the hallway... this was the result... notice how Ben attempts to keep the power cord from getting tangled, but ends up wrapping it tightly around my neck.

Updated Links
Well this silly little blog has reached 10,000 hits since late March. I have no clue who's visiting this site so much, but it feels cool to see so many people interested in the random stuff I post.

Cartoon Modern
I picked up this book at Strange Adventures yesterday and was thoroughly delighted with it's contents. This animation design style through the 50s book is authored by the guy who runs cartoonbrew.com.This manual charts the evolution of the modern style in animation, which largely discarded the "lifelike" aesthetic for a more graphic and often abstract approach. Abundantly found in commercials and educational films, this quickly popular cartoon modernism shared much with the painting and graphic design movements of the era.
This period between the classic films of Walt Disney in the 1940s and the televised cartoon revolution of the 1960s was a critical period in the history of animation. Showcasing hundreds of rare and forgotten sketches, models, boards, cels, and film stills, this amazing book is a thoroughly researched, eye-popping, and delightful account of a vital decade of animation design.
