Revisiting/recreating an old favourite



Back in the university days at the college paper, MONDO Magazine, we came up with an idea for a place mat, with games, for a made-up burger joint called MONDO Burger. I had to come up with some characters. I felt like revisiting this gem and rebooted one of the games to give it a renewed look. Featured here are Detective Delicious and the ever burger-crazed Burger Buccaneer. A bit absurb, but fun. Can you find what's different with each picture, kids?

Oh, I also included the original to compare, remarkable how one can get better.

And also, MONDO is still going strong, now as a web magazine - mondomagazine.net

Mayday Storyboard




Here's a condensed version of a storyboard I did for an upcoming episode of Mayday. What you're seeing in these images, in a nutshell, is as the plane rises the right engine begins smoking, plane rocks. Then left engine starts on fire. As the plane goes down the pilots see a snowy field. They crash into the pines - right wing breaks off, into the field - plane breaks apart, and all survive. Cool, no?
