Eight
Millimetre Model Aircraft An
8 millimeter movie that Karl and his friend John Wright and I did in junior
high school in 1978. I forget what type of plane the model was. We used a
vacuum cleaner to blow air on the propeller to get it to spin while filming.
We ran out of film just as their aircraft was exploding on the ground, so we
missed part of it. The explosion lit a bit of John's hair on fire as he was
filming. The 'laser' was hand scratched onto the film. The
film was run quite a few times, so there's lots of scratch marks & such
on the film. I had it transferred to DVD in 2009, which has added some MPEG
compression artifacts. I added the sound in 2010. |
Animated
Snake Puzzle Toy
An animation I did of a Snake Puzzle Toy in (I think) 1981. (No sound) I recently had the Super 8 film converted to DVD. |

Budgie
Chick: Assisted Flight (Day 23) I
thought that the budgie chick would enjoy an assisted flight, as its wings
aren't developed enough for it to fly on its own. (23 days old.) I added a
soundtrack to give it a bit of an SF feel. |
Doodle
Trek
Some hand drawn Trek animation I did in 1987. I filmed it with a Super
8 camera in 1993. I had it telecined to DVD in 2009, then converted it to WMV
and added sound in 2010. There's a bit of dirt & some scratches on the
film and some compression artifacting from the DVD conversion. |

Captain
Picard and the Gorn Short
animated movie about an alien encounter. I put this together in 2007 or so.
This is my second Picard cartoon, as he's about the only character I can draw
somewhat consistently. |

walk around video at Gottacon, a gaming
convention at Pearkes Arena in Victoria BC. This is Friday night, Feb 5,
2010. We had a dealers table for Neo-opsis Science Fiction Magazine, for the
con. I did the walk around during a lull in the dealer room traffic. The
light level went up & down on the camera a bit for some reason, possibly
low batteries. |
