"I must get this crack mended."

"This is Carole Ledoux: young, beautiful, desirable. Men found her irresistable. But something is happening to her -- something that she doesn't quite understand. And soon she will be swept up in a frantic fury of...REPULSION."

Watched this movie back in art school days and it really stuck with me. When I saw this film was coming up as part of Enzian's Cult Classic Movies Series, I couldn't wait to do the poster. I re-watched the film several times to try to find the right way to portray this movie on the poster. I wanted to visually capture the claustrophobic sense of paranoia permeating the film. And nothing says "claustrophobic paranoia" like big ass eyeballs.

Domo arigato, Mister Roboto!

Here's a swell little project I did for the Cancer Navigators of Rome, Georgia, a community resource for cancer patients and survivors.

MOSURA!!

Okay. So, Pacific Rim's special effects are amazing. And sure, the acting and dialog are snappy. But where's the magic? Where's the thing that will keep a kid awake at night thinking and re-thinking about the movie. Where's that special moment a kid wants to relive so badly he'll sneak out of bed - risking parental admonishment - to draw, with as much detail as he can pull out of his brain, a recreation of that moment? Where can a tender mind find such magnificence? I'll tell you where: MOTHRA.

WE BURN THEM TO ASHES. THEN WE BURN THE ASHES.

This coming Tuesday, September 25th, Enzian Theater presents for its Cult Classic Movies series, Francois Truffaut's 1966 adaptation of Ray Bradbury's socio-political sci-fi gem, Fahrenheit 451. One of the great things about doing posters for this series is that it gives me an excusable reason to sit down and really look hard at some fantastic movies. Truffaut's Fahrenheit 451 is no exception. His cerebral approach to the text, while leaving many critics and film-goers of that time perplexed, offers a film experience that even today seems modern.

Come out next Tuesday. Watch a movie, drink a beer, have some popcorn and buy my poster.

And then there's this:

Have these people no sense of irony?

...And a Japanese Transistor radio!

I have two unbending Christmas traditions: I never miss watching the movie "A Christmas Story," and I listen to Allan Sherman's "The Twelve Gifts of Christmas" at least a dozen times. You may ask, "Doesn't that get old?" To which I respond, "Does Christmas get old? What that old holiday, again?"

To celebrate my enjoyment of the Allan Sherman song, I have created a series of  iPhone cases to memorialize the legendarily mythological "Nakashuma" Japanese transistor radio. It's the Mark IV model. That's the one that's discontinued.

Listen to the classic Christmas song here.

Anyway, here are the cases I designed. If you like 'em, run on over to Society6 and buy a few.

AGAIN, I have had the great fortune to be able to collaborate with Jeff Matz and Lure Design to help create the upcoming campaign for the 2012 Florida Film Festival. I'm the luckiest boy in Puppetland.
