GOOD NEWS ALL AROUND!!!

So, I think me and my friends may be doing something right.

First of all, my friend Santiago Rocha won the first place for best short film on http://www.animacam.tv with his movie EL MONSTRUO

Then, today, our internet show "El pequeño tirano" got mentioned on one of Colombia´s main newspapers.



Posted on their webpage http://www.elespectador.com/noticias/judicial/video-agro-ingreso-seguro being the most voted and commented video on their list.

and talked about it on a radio show of the first radio station of Colombia.

INSPIRATION: THE MAN CALLED FLINTSTONE (1966)

I just finished watching The Man called Flintstone, a movie I used to love when I was a kid, and hadn't watched since the late eigthies. The movie is what it is, a long Flintstone episode that parodies the Spy Genre. But I think what made this movie stick in my mind throughout the years was the colorful opening sequence when Fred is made a spy. One thing I didn't remember was the ending credits being so good, maybe because as a kid those Hanna Barbera movies ended when they all merrily laughed to a very lame joke or a simplistic and basic moral. Credits didn't mean a thing.

But...















Something like Lascaux meets Indie Comics.

Everyday I amaze myself of how some people can make great figures using only basic shapes. That´s shows some great understanding of design, nature and people´s minds.

Great Great source of inspiration.
